I was so terrified of being a Mama to a daughter. I've been a tomboy most of my life and can't always relate to girly girl stuff. As soon as Kailey was born and they told me I had a daughter I knew, deep in my gut, it was meant to be and I would be okay. The funny part is, she's so girly, SO girly, and I love it. I love letting her be who she is.
For the last three years she has brought nothing but sunshine to my life.There are moments when she is a gentle reminder to let go and have fun. Once in a while she's also a little tiny mirror of my own self. She will do something or say something and then I realize she's picked that up from me, and it's not always my good traits ;)
In the last three years I have watched her bloom into her own little person. She is stubborn, works hard, artistic and a joy to be around. There are so many people in her life that love her to the moon and back. Everyday I am thankful I was given a daughter; a daughter that always amazes me and teaches me about unconditional love.
I don't think I really knew what love was until I became a mother.
