Where Was I Before? Notes between mother and daughter (9)
Dear Mommy
Where was I before I was in your tummy?
Dear Daughter
You didn’t exist except in my dreams. When your father’s sperm met my egg, they danced a joyous dance and began a process that led to your life. We never dreamed that little baby would grow into such a beautiful young woman.
Now as I watch the pleasures you draw from life and give to others, I feel blessed beyond measure. You have become a beautiful part of the world. That’s part of the reason I love you so much.
