Words I Want You to Remember

I can barely begin to tell you of all my wishes for you.
There are so many of them, and I wants them all come true.
I want you to use your heart as a compass as you grow and find your way in the world, but I want you to always have an appreciation for the direction of home.
I want you to be self-reliant, self-motivated, and self-sufficient, but to know how that you will never be alone.
I Want you to be wise beyond your years.
I don't want you to grow up to0 fast.
I want you to come to me with your fears

I want the people who share your days to realise that they are in the presence of a very special someone.
You are a wonderful, rare person with no comparison.
I want you to know that opportunities will come, and you'll hove many goals to achieve.
The more that obstacles get in the way of your dream, the more you'll need to believe.
Get your feet wet with new experiences, but be sure you never get in over your head.
I want you to realize how capable you are, and that your possibilities are unlimited.
I hope you never lose your childlike wonder, your delight and appreciation in interesting thing.
I know you'll Keep responding in a positive way to the challenges life always bring.
I pray that you won't rush the future, and that you'll slowly build on the steppingstones of the past.
You have a strong foundation of family and friends and joy that will always last.

I wish I could find the words to tell you how much I love you each and every day.
But that feeling is so strong and it's meaning is so magnificent, it can be hard to know just what to say.

I love you beyond all words.
And I promise that I will love you beyond all time.
So many treasures await you in your journey of life...

and being blessed with you ...has been mine.
