Dear Stella and Vera,
Recently you two started to go to "school". My oh my time is flying... It was just yesterday you two were born. Already your personalities are forming and shaping. You have the best life around you in a world that is full of both happy and sad. There is so much you know that the rest of us had forgotten, so much you are teaching us. There is oh so much more that you will see.
Change. It can be tough. There is the saying that the only thing constant is change. So much of life is your outlook on change. Never forget you have the most amazing powers to create change. It tough being away from home. From mom. She misses you too. You are small eagles and you are beginning to learn how to fly. Your wings are powerful. No matter what. Mom and all of your family is with you. Guiding you, supporting you and cheering you on.
I write this from over 700 miles away. My heart aches knowing how much i am missing out on. In my gut, I know I am meant to be here. At least for.now. I think of you all the time and if i knew you needed something, anything I would do everything in my power to help. Now and always I am supporting you from far away. It's been so much fun hearing about you and reading the blog that tells me about your days and how much you are growing, changing and learning.
Going to your first school is the one of the first of your many adventures in your lives. There are many to be had, and the possibilities are endless. There is so much you can accomplish, if only you set your mind to it and work hard. No matter what you may do, I know one thing for sure, you will make your family proud.
You will be big strong eagles.
=)
What a beautiful letter to my girls. They will treasure this one day. It warms my heart to know how much you love them. Love you.
