” LETTER from MOM to her DAUGHTER ” MUST READ .
Your big day. The day you “officially” leave me and begin your new life .Yes, there are tears streaming down my cheeks as I write this. Not because I’m sad. I couldn’t be happier for you, but because…. Well, just because I always cry at these kinds of moments. You know that.
I’ve reflected a lot on the day you made me a momma. I was 19; I had little idea what I was doing. I remember thinking my life would never be the same. I was scared. Overwhelmed. And yet we managed.You were the most adorable baby.
Its time for us to take a backseat in your life. i remember the day when You just started to crawl and we wanted carpet in the living room to protect your knees as you learned to motivate.
When you’d wake me in the middle of the night with your cries, I’d change and feed you, and then I’d rock you and sing children’s tunes and lullabies. Often I’d fall asleep in the chair with you cradled in my arms and we’d spend the rest of the night there together.
you never was and will never be a burden for me. you in fact is the reason why I breathe and smile. I am getting you married because this is what the law of nature demands. I am helpless in the face of our culture and therefore sending you to your home. you were the happiness of my home and will now light up your home.
There wasn’t anything your dad and I wouldn’t do for you.
You loved school and flourished. You were a reader and made friends easily. You were an adorable baby and the two of us spent hours playing together.
Despite the rain falling this morning, today is going to be a beautiful day. It is the day you marry the love of your life.
I don’t mind if I don’t get to see you for months. I don’t mind if I am not able to talk to you on daily basis. I would be more than happy if you don’t remember me much. But, my only motive in life has been my daughter’s happiness.
Dear son-in-law,
I am more than sure that you will keep her very happy. She will perhaps be happier than what she used to be here. But like all mothers,I obsess over my daughter’s happiness which is making me say this over and over again- please keep her happy!
I am giving my world to you. Please make sure it remains beautiful. I am giving away my princess to you. Please make sure she stays as a queen. I have raised her with my sweat and blood and now she is wonderfully perfect. For all the care, love, beauty and warmth my daughter will bring into your lives, I just want her happiness in return.
these words may not mean much to you now but if you are lucky enough to father a daughter someday, you will appreciate them better when you will find every beat of your heart shouting – “please keep her happy”!
i love you both.
— Dedicated to all mothers & their beautiful daughters
