To Isabella,

It is 11:02pm and I cannot sleep so I want to write a bit since you cant quite understand the things I think about when I say them out loud to you. Where should I begin my darling. This world keeps getting more crazy everyday, I am afraid for you. As I watched the news this morning I couldent help but think of you when hearing one tragic story after another. I thought about the world I must prepare you for. I am so glad to be your mom, you have given your father and I a kind of love that we could never understand untill we looked at what we made. Isabella I want to be a better parent then my parents were. I want to give you all the things I never had and with this I want to show you things that not everybody teaches their children. Ignorance will just grow as we grow as people, color and race are oppertunities for you to meet and explore other cultures not be intiminated by people that are different than us.

Men and Women are equal no matter what anybody will tell you. Being a woman you have power, especially in this day in age and I want you to use this power to your full potential. Take pride in yourself and treat yourself with respect no matter what the people around you will be doing. I want to give you confidence no matter how you look, never talk about others who might not look like our everyday super models or celebrities for somebody is always watching you. The decisions you will come to make will define you as a person so be a good one. Take all your experiences and learn from them, watch everything that happens around you and be alert. We are having difficulties with our economy right now and innocent people that worked hard their whole lives are loosing their houses by the dozens. With this said I wish for you to study hard and have goals to achieve so you can become successful and you wont have to struggle. I have made many sacrafices for you and our family as your father has done as well.

My Darling, you are so precious, no matter what path you choose in this life I will be right behind you to live out your joy and catch you if you should fall. Hard times, we all have them and you will have many but I am always here. Not to judge but to listen and be your mom. Never loose faith even for a second. When people tell you that God doesent care, he lets bad things happen to us turn your cheek because he will be there when nobody else is. I believe we have our guardian angels looking over us, we must because your father and I almost lost you in a deadly car crash when I was 7 months pregnant. The car was crushed and I felt you inside of me. All I could do was pray in the ambulance.You survived, daddy and me survived. Nothing less than a miracle. I want to raise you to be a good person, a great woman and someday a wonderful mother, and when I depart from you know that I will always be with you because you are a little version of me. I love you my angel.

Love Always,
Mama
