A letter to my Daughter.

Dear Shayna,

I love you, I truly do! You are magic. When you walk into a room it lights up. How do you do that? You light me up. When I look at you I feel happiness in my soul. You make me smile. You infuriate me! When you set your mind to something there is no changing it. You are determined.

I'm on to you. I know you wrap your gum around your thumb so you can't taste the nasty polish. I know you suck your thumb when the polish starts to wear off right before I put on a fresh coat regardless of the taste. Your determined. Your not a quitter and for that I am proud. You know what else makes me proud? You don't suck your thumb at school anymore or during meal times. I consider that success!

I'm going to continue putting the polish on your nails, because you know what? I'm not a quitter either.

I love you madly,

Mommy
