DAUGHTERS AND BUTTERFLIES
We all start as caterpillars,
But slowly grow
Until one day
We are butterflies.
As I have watched you grow,
I have seen you
Turn into a fine person
And a beautiful young woman.
Advice to Daughter
"Be strong. Be intelligent. Smile.
Know that beauty has everything to do with how you feel
about yourself and nothing to do with looks or other
people's opinions. Never do anything just because
everyone else is. Always be true to yourself. Expect the
best from life and that's what you'll get. Believe in
magic and wish on stars. Love and trust and be
compassionate. Make faces. Play in mud puddles. Take
bubble baths. Turn off all the lights and watch lightning
storms. Dance, laugh, cry, and sing when you want to.
Read everything you can get your hands on. Stand up for
what is right especially if you stand alone. Don't allow
yourself or people around you to tolerate prejudices of
any kind. Don't be afraid to try something new. Do
something daring at least once a week. Run through snow
drifts. Spin in circles and roll down hills. Pet puppies,
hold kittens, and talk to babies. Stay up to watch the
sunrise. Never apologize for being a woman or for being
yourself.
Never forget that I love you, no matter how far apart we
are you will always be my daughter."
