Dear daughters,
Your bright smiles light up my world, and your desire for my presence is palpable. The way you curl up against me, seeking comfort and warmth, feels like a beautiful and ordinary dance. At times, it’s hard to distinguish where you end and I begin; we are so intricately woven together.
When I first embraced motherhood, it was a whirlwind of emotions. I found myself grappling with my identity, feeling both overwhelmed and transformed. The independence I had fiercely held onto began to shift, making way for a new kind of reliance—both on you and from you. You changed me even before you entered this world, and together, we’ve navigated this journey.
But I want to remind you that this dependence won’t last forever. Sooner than I can fathom, you will seek your own paths, pushing me away in your quest for self-discovery. While I hope you always cherish each other’s company, I understand that you will need to carve out your identities, separate from mine. This realization aches deeply in my bones, yet my role is to equip you for this inevitable journey, preparing you to face the world—and most importantly, yourselves.
As you navigate through life, there may come moments when you feel lost, caught between who you are and who you aspire to be. In those moments, I hope you can connect with the essence of your true selves. I want you to be whole, even amidst the chaos. Life will challenge you; there will be days that drain you and nights that seem endless. It’s during those times that I hope you can find my spirit within you, but more importantly, that you discover your own.
You are my daughters, my loves, and my own flesh and blood. Yet, you do not belong to me. You belong to yourselves, and it is vital that you claim that identity every single day. You can start small—look around and let your eyes embrace your surroundings. Speak your name with confidence and compassion. Cherish your body, the vessel that allows you to swing higher and higher on the playground. It is your sanctuary, a space that belongs solely to you.
As young girls, society will ask you to conform—whether by covering up or speeding up, feeling pleasure or holding back. You will face unrealistic expectations and pressures to grow up too fast. Please, don’t let the voices of “they,” “she,” and “he” drown out your inner voice, the one that truly knows you.
External opinions may cloud your perception, making your body seem either alien or an object to be judged. But remember, the only voice that determines your worth is your own.
