If many of you were as lucky as I was, you were given the blessing of having a godmother in your life.

To my godmother:

Thank you for every role you have fulfilled. You have been a mom, a friend, a confidant, an aunt, and a caregiver. You watched over me and protected me like I was your own. You opened your home to me at any point in time, even if it was a moments notice. You let me indulge in things I wasn't allowed to have unlimited amounts of at home. You even let me try soda for the first time!

You were a friend when I needed it most. You would go to movies with me, have me over and watch TV with me, go shopping with me, and so much more. You became a shoulder to cry on as I grew older and went through many life circumstances. You are someone I can always trust.

You know almost everything about me, as a mother would with their natural child. You can listen to someone so carefully and concerning.

We are family. We are not blood-related, but our bond is thicker. You have embraced me at my highs and lows, and for that I am eternally grateful. You are my mom's sister by bond, not blood. You are my family by love.

You always jumped right in when I needed to be taken care of or watched over. You have taken me on when I was sick, sad, happy, or mad. You know my favorite things, favorite shows, favorite hobbies, my likes and dislikes. You were always a phone call away when I needed something, and still are.

Thank you for helping my mom and dad raise me. So many memories are shared with you. You're loving, goofy, warm, open-hearted, and a softy. Thank you for being you, and for blessing me from the day I was born as my godmother. I only hope my future children have a godmother as cool as you.

Love,

Your (un)biological child
