A letter to my children

You amaze me. You have grown into the most amazing, independent and strong adults. You show compassion to others. You respect the world around you. You value life and the lives of others. You know that sometimes people walk in pain and sorrow and I see the kindness you show to them. You walk with love in your heart and show that love to others. It gives me comfort to know that you will always know love because you are so loved.

You should know that some day when I’m gone, my love will always surround you.  It will be there in the kindness you show others. It will be there when you appreciate the beauty of the earth; it will be there when you show respect to others. Most of all, my love for you will be there as you teach your children to be the same amazing people that you are.

Each smile, each moment of laughter, each moment of amazement that you experience with your child; know that the love you feel for them is the same love I feel for you. That love never changes, never dies, and is never diminished by distance or time. Love is infinite. So always know that I love you beyond measure and beyond time. I am proud that you chose me to be your mother.

Love you now and always. ❤
