Dear Miss Sidney,
I hope you feel the sun shine warm on your skin every day.
I hope you feel the brisk cold a beautiful winter day brings to you.
I hope you wake every morning feeling thankful for the gift of the present.
I hope you take a moment to inhale deeply and smell the rain as it falls.
I hope you remember the moments from your childhood when you had no worries.
I hope you cherish the moments in life when the electricity goes out and there are no sounds of fans, buzzing, ringing, only the absolute complete quiet….those are the moments when you truly hear your own honest thoughts in your head and the sound of your heart beating.
I hope you taste new foods, drinks, and herbs that you once feared.
I hope you never feel the loneliness of loss.
I hope you never fall without someone to catch you or pick you back up.
I hope you feel love in each breath you take, each word spoken to you, each hug you experience, and each kiss you receive.
I hope you admire those around you rather than judge them.
I hope you cultivate the love you and Cyle have and continue to work harder every day to be better than than the day before.
I hope you entertain new adventures no matter how boring they may sound.
I hope you safeguard your future babies from the hatred in the world.
I hope you always communicate with kindness, softness in your voice, and love in your eyes.
I hope you know without exception how much I have loved you and always will.
Love,
Mom
