is 15 years old today</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">you are a graceful &amp; kind young woman&#8230;<br />
i am in awe of your patience &amp; sweet disposition&#8230;<br />
motherhood is a beautiful mystery&#8230;i sometimes feel as unsure<br />
now as i did when i first held you in my arms&#8230;<br />
yet you have someone become a teenager with such grace &amp; poise,<br />
you have made this part of mothering easier<br />
than i am sure it is supposed to be<br />
&amp; for that i am oh so grateful&#8230;it is somehow still bittersweet<br />
for as i see you grow &amp; mature i realize i am<br />
slowing saying goodbye to you as well&#8230;<br />
that you will someday not live here seems<br />
like the cruelest twist yet of<br />
motherhood &amp; yet<br />
i know it is so&#8230;&amp; although i will miss you<br />
every step of the way, i will also<br />
be so proud to watch you go&#8230;<br />
take your time my sweet&#8230;<br />
i love you more than you&#8217;ll ever know&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">xoxo</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">HAPPY BEAUTIFUL BIRTHDAY</p>
