My dearest daughter; There was never a moment when I didn't love you or when I didn't want you to be in my life. But many times I handled things wrong and many times we both said and did things that were hurtful. From the moment I knew you were coming into this world I knew it would give me purpose. The second you were born you were special in every way. You gave me a purpose to fight, a reason to smile, a drive to work hard, a joy that all mother's understand and a faith to continue on.
I have watched you struggle, stumble and fall down. But I have also watched you pick yourself up, determine that you could beat the odds and get your life back on track. You have displayed an inner strength and determination that is inspiring and you have succeeded in changing things around and I am proud of you for that. You brought many things into my life. We have laughed together, we have cried together, we have shared our heartfelt feelings and we have even yelled together. But never ever over these years would I have not wanted you for my daughter.
There's not enough room to list all the reasons I am proud of you and how much you mean to me. I hope you know though I don't say it often enough that this mother loves you with all her heart and without you my life would not be complete.I want you to know that having you in my life has been the most exhilarating, exciting, joyful, thought-provoking adventure yet! You amaze me, every day.
I love everything about you, even the challenges, and I'm prepared to provide you with all the resources I can, so that you can live your life to the fullest! I will support you even if I disagree with you. I will always allow you to explore the world and discover for yourself, who and what and where you want to be! You can always count on me to be here for you, no matter what it is you need. There is nothing too trivial and nothing too scary you can bring to me and I will listen and help you sort out whatever it is. Or I will just listen, if that is all you want.
Most importantly remember that even if we don’t see eye to eye, I will always love you unconditionally. Now, one more thing, I don’t want you to be sad if I am no longer with you here. We are connected heart to heart and I haven’t missed anything! But ALLAH has me in His plan too, and I am better off there than here. I want you to trust in that and my love always and forever for you as well as I love both my sons equally and I am very proud of both of them!
I bless you in your life as you bless mine.
so much love,
mama

As a mom of a toddler who had one of those days... Thank you for reminding me that this time in life is going to be desperately missed and to celebrate the now. Beautiful words.
