Timeless

They all say that I spoil you; and that I shouldn’t give in to your every whim and desire; but who are they to know.
I want you to have everything that I never did, a happy childhood where imagination herself can run wild, and a safe space so comforting that it begins to feel like home.

I never got those things, my sweet girl; but I will be damned if you don’t. You’re too young to understand right now,
But one day when you’re older, you will look back and I hope that you will be grateful for all of the things I made sure you had; and all of the things you are getting to experience.
I am healing us both, both you, and the little girl living on the inside of my lungs who never got half as much as what you are getting, my miracle, you.

So when you are older, I hope you will find these words in times of need, I hope that you realize that I’ve tried to give you everything I never had growing up.
I love you so much, my mini me.

Love, your big sister.
