My First Mother's Day

Dear Kristina DeAnn:

Today was a day I have waited to celebrate for many years. As a Godmother to six "kids", I have been blessed - no doubt. But my dream since I was a little girl was to be a mom. You, my little Kristina, have fulfilled my dream.

I promise to take care of you, to hold you when you are scared, to laugh with you when you are happy and to encourage you to follow your dreams always. I hope to be a role model for you as my mom has been for me.

There was a reason we were put together in this world. God knew that I couldn't have a child but he knew of my dream and desire. He found someone who could have a child but just couldn't raise this child like he felt I could, along with your Papa. So he tied our heartstrings together so we would become one as a family.

Papa and I went to Mass at St. Ann's tonight after visiting with you. I prayed to be the best mom I can be and for God to look after you, little one. I know he heard us.

I love you, Kristina DeAnn, and thank you for making my first Mother's Day very special.

Love always,
