Dear Future Daughter

I'll be there for you

Dear Future Daughter

To my future daughter,

You will never go a day without my love. I will be there for you through every journey. Every tear. Every smile. Every day. My life will solely revolve around making yours the best it can be. I will be your biggest supporter, your loudest cheerleader, your go-to gal.

Be exactly who you want to be. Love yourself. Do not think for one second that you need to disguise yourself as someone you aren't. Be true. You were born to be unique. Don't ever let somebody influence your dreams, your aspirations, your values. Express yourself however you please.

You are smart. You will find yourself in miserable situations. You will cry and you will feel stupid. Meltdowns are necessary and completely human. God will only put challenges in your life that he knows you can handle. Whatever you face, you will get through it one way or another. You will feel intense feelings of accomplishment. You will feel intense feelings of defeat. And that's okay.

Don't let somebody make you feel like you aren't good enough. When you tell me you're in love, I'll believe you. When you tell me that you got your heart broken, I will be there for you. Remember that if something is meant to be, it'll be. Sometimes your life has to fall apart for the right things to fall together. You will meet many people and you will take chances. But one day the right one will come along and you'll realize why everything else didn't work out.

Never give up, especially on yourself. When times get tough, get tougher. Face your demons. Take what you get and handle it the best you can. Use your family and your friends for support, that's what they are there for. Don't lose faith. If it's important to you, accomplish it.

You're never alone. Never hesitate to lean on me. I'm yours.
