To the daughter that I may have in the future,
I have no intention of having kids anytime soon but sometimes I sit and wonder what you'll look like, me or the man that will be your father. Either way, I can imagine how beautiful you will be. The thought of having a little version of me running around our home is so amazing. I wonder what you'll want to be and what you will accomplish. Will you want to be a writer like me? I can't begin to imagine the creativity you will have or how smart you will be. There's so much I will teach you as you grow up to be an amazing woman.
I will teach you to love yourself because you are worth so much.
I will teach you to be strong because there will be a day where people are going to try to ruin you.
I will teach you to love Jesus just like my mom taught me.
I will teach you to have a kind heart and always help others.
I will teach you to never be ashamed of who you are.
I will teach you to do whatever makes you the happiest in life because that's all I want is for you to be happy.
I will teach you to never chase after any man because no one will ever deserve you.
I will teach you all the great Disney movies songs.
I will teach you to love The Legend of Zelda as much as I do.
I pray by the time you're ready to come the world isn't how it is now. I hope our society is more accepting and won't push you away for the color of your skin. I hope you are shown the respect as a woman you deserve. I want you to know there is a lot of things in the world that will be out to hurt you and I promise that I will protect you with everything that I have.
I love you already.
