Journaling:

"Before my eyes you turned from a chubby, tiny baby to a busy, long and lean little girl. You are growing up so fast! But I have enjoyed every minute of it. I actually don't feel as though it's gone by "too fast" as the cliched saying goes, because I have been fully present and enjoying every moment of your precious life. I won't look back to your childhood with regrets, wishing I had been more present with you as you grow. As you grow as a child, I am growing as a parent and becoming wiser. I'm learning as I go and never looking back with regrets because I am confident I'm giving you the very best start in life. I'm trusting my mama instincts, respecting you as a person - (little as you may be, you still deserve the same respect any adult would) - and truly loving you unconditionally. As your world and life get more complicated, I hope you, too, will look back upon your childhood and remember it with the same joy and happiness I do."
