My Promise to My Child

I will stalk you, freak out on you, lecture you, drive you crazy, be your worst nightmare, embarrass you in front of your friends, hunt you down like a bloodhound until the day you understand why I do it. 
Then I'll know you are a responsible adult. All because I LOVE YOU  
You will never find anyone ...... 
who loves you and cares about you more than...

your MOTHER

I love you, LM...

I knew all along I would love you, but I never realized the depth of that love could grow any stronger... it grows by leaps and bounds every day. You're only 3 months old, but you seem to know exactly what to do to make me smile and make my cares fly away.

I love your smile... and your sweet little laugh. I love your determination... and I love your little coos and baby words. You mean the world, and so much more, to me. 

I vow to always be there for you when you fall... and when you need to celebrate success. I vow to protect you... but let you spread your wings and learn to fly. I vow to teach you new things as you teach me. I vow to be an example of faith, hope, love, trust, and intellect. I vow to show you the importance of education, hard work and dedication.

I vow all of these things and so much more. But most of all, I vow to love you... unconditionally... for all the days of my life.
