Today I woke up with a tear running down my face. A tear of
joy, I hope.
Its Helen’s birthday today and I wish I was there to celebrate
with her and make her day super extra special, just like she is. This little
girl is turning 11 but going on to 17. She is mature, she is smart, she is
funny and very spontaneous. She is genuine and also very sweet.
She is only 11 and although she is mature, due to the fact
she hangs out mostly with adults unless she is at school she has a sense of innocence
I adore.
Years ago when Helen was born I was going through a stage in
life where I didn’t really appreciate what I had or who I had. I learned of her
birth and I was happy but it almost didn’t make me feel anything else, at that
time I was numb, very numb. Thankfully that is all behind me now and I have
moved on, matured and grown. Boy am I glad I did! I can now see things for what
they truly are and I can see my life into the future and could never imagine
living in this world without my family and those around me.
To appreciate is to love. I hope my little girl has a great
day today. I know she will grow up to be amazingly talented and great at
whatever it is she decides to do in life! Happy birthday Princess! If I could
only translate into words how much I love you. My heart beats faster thinking
of you, afraid you will grow up too fast and forget me haha! I am far… but
always close to your heart I hope.
Thanks for been so sweet and understanding and always
patient. Thanks for tickling my back on demand when I ask haha! And thanks
above all for truly loving me like a big sister. God didn’t give me any blood
brothers or sisters but it gave me YOU and that’s one of the most amazing most precious
things in my life today. I love you with all my heart! Happy Happy Birthday!
