Isabelle, my sobbing after reading this letter you gave me, had made you so worried and confused. On this particular day self-doubt and feelings of Motherhood-failure ran so deep it was suffocating. You saved the day.

 

letter from daughter

 

{copied word for word, from Isabelle, 8 years old}

Dear Mom and Dad

You guys are my heroes in so many ways. I am thankful that I have
such good parents and even if we were poor I will still love you so
much. thank you for tacking me to Disneyland for my B-day. I like it
when you give me baken wrapped chiken. I appreciate when
you give me hugs. And thank you for keeping me safe.
xoxoxoxoxo. I love you guys so much

love: Bell

 

I know you don’t totally understand, yet I know one day you’ll realize just how much having this means to me. Thank you Isabelle, for being you and being true. So thoughtful and compassionate.

I love you.

p.s. I’m making you Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Chicken tonight.

love always, Mom

      How do you store all the keepsakes Nathania? I have a cedar chest, but it’s so full, need an idea! And glad you love the recipe, happy when the kids request something other than take-out! lol

        Now I totally want a cedar chest to store keepsakes, but I would need something huge…and probably 5 of them lol. I keep them in folders in a filing cabinet, all organized by age/girl! My fiances mom gave him all of his little letters/drawings from when he was little before we had our children, she kept all of her keepsakes from all 5 of her kids organized like that so I decided to do it that way to!

    Such a sweet note from a very caring and thoughtful little girl. I still have a few little notes, drawings and cards my children gave me and I treasure them. I am sure this will be one of those notes you will keep and read over and over.

    Aw…my daughter had written a touching letter such as this one, only she was a difficult teenager at the time, when I sometimes wondered why I didn’t just give up. Of course we don’t give up on our kids. And then when my job became so incredibly stressful and difficult, I wondered why I bothered going to work each day. So I pinned her letter to my cubical wall to remind myself why. Our children teach us many wonderful lessons and keep us strong.
