Last night, Cam said, as I put her to bed:
‘mommy, you are the gift of my life. you are the only mother i ever wanted, and i love you’.
The truth is, Cam, I’ve had the two biggest presents of my life come to me on other people’s birthdays.
The first was you… you born on your day of birth. You are the greatest gift of my life. Thank you for choosing me to be your mama.
The second was…given to me on my best friend’s birthday a few years back. They know exactly who they are.
Every day, I am thankful for the greatest gifts of my life, given to me on other people’s birthdays.
Thank you.
Your daughter sounds incredible… I am guessing she gets that from you.
I don’t think I have ever known such deep or unconditional love.
Sweet little girl.
