Lili,
9 years ago, I didn't know what to expect. I had two boys, and boy stuff was all I understood. When I found out I was having a girl, I was nervous, and excited. Nervous to have to figure out girl stuff, and excited to be able to have a daughter to bond with, to share things with.
You know that growing up my Birth mom wasn't around, Grandma D did the best she could, we just didn't have that bond. I didn't have things in common with her. That is why I was so excited.
These 9 years have been every thing I wished for. You are my Twin, my mini me. You are the only child that looks like me, and to go along with that your attitude is all mine. I love it. Love that you love little kids, and that you are the best cleaner in the house. At 9 you clean as good as grandma Mary.
You are a prayer that was answered. Lili I love you more than words can say. I am grateful for your spunky attiude, and you Big heart. Two of the best things about you. I am grateful that I get to be the mom I didn't have, to have mommy daughter dates, and to have girl talks, to be involved in you life as much as you want to share with me.
Thank you Lili for being my daughter. Love with all my heart Mom.
