Dearest Olivia,
In just two weeks time, you will be starting first grade. Wow! You have gotten so big and so smart so fast! I can't believe you have grown into such a beautiful, smart young lady! I remember the day you were born, a picture of perfection. And you still wow me everyday! You were breathtaking then, and you are breathtaking now. When you were a baby you were quiet and always observing the world around you. You didnt speak a full sentence until you were three years old. People thought you were behind. I knew better, you just didnt have anything to say. Now you are this ornery, opinionated little imp! YOU get smarter everyday and I have so many hopes and dreams for you. Be better than me. Further your education and be somebody. I went to college for a year then I quit. I've felt like I failed myself since then. Live your life with no regrets and make sure in the end you dont have any. Really live and have fun. Because when its over its over. I regret many things about my past and I dont want you to end up that way. Theres nothing I wouldnt do for you happiness baby girl! I'm you mom and I love you and thats what I'm supposed to do no matter what. You and your brother and sisters are the best things in my life. No matter what grandma says. Yes, I do get frustrated and I'm sorry for that. But that doesnt mean that I dont love you more than anything in this world. I want to find you a dad worthy of you, your dad doesnt deserve to be in your life. HE has chosen to be out of your life. I have never kept you from him. EVER! I feel like I'm the lucky one everyday. Its all because I get to be with you and watch you grow up. Well, my dear Livi, its getting late and I have to work in the morning. So until I can write another letter to you, see you in the morning, stinker!
All my love,
Mommy
