Little Girl

There is that moment as a mother when you realize that your baby girl isn't your baby girl anymore. Of course in your heart she will always be your baby but in reality she will be...

someone's friend

someone's wife

someone's mother

and in the moment you hope that you are doing a good job of raising her so that she will be good at all those things. That she will make friends who won't try to persuade her to try bad things. That she will marry a man who will love her they way you hope she will be loved. That she will be a be a better mother to her children than her own mother was to her. That she may remember always how beautiful, wonderful, cherished and valiant she really is at all times.




And finally you hope that you will always remember these moments

The ones that remind you that she is always your baby girl...




and that will never change no matter how big she gets.
