Dear Siena: Letters to Every Daughter
As a child who lost her daddy at such a young age, I don't have the pleasure of many memories with the man I thought of as my hero. All I have left of him are some pictures, a handful of memories, and whatever stories others who knew him well have shared with me. I've always desperately wished I had more. When I became a mother, I instantly felt the other side of the story. My whole life I'd only been the child... and now I was the parent. I suddenly knew what it was like to literally wear my heart on my sleeve. To feel not only all of my own fears and emotions, and pain. But, now I've taken on all of hers as well. This switch in perspectives inspired me to give her something I never had. A piece of me she can have and hold, and refer to forever. A way to give her advice and comfort. Whether it be when she's a teenager and too scared to come ask for help or confide in me. Or, when I'm long gone and she's a mommy herself. A way for her to get to know me, know who I am, what is important to me. What I struggled with, what I conquered, what I accomplished. What I failed at, what I hope for her, how much I believe in her. And most importantly, how so very, very much I love her. So, I've written her letters, periodically, since the day she was born. Letters about life, advice, stories, memories, anything I am inspired to write to her about. Something that can not only help her, but hopefully others as well. My hope is you walk away empowered, inspired, and plum full of love and hope, because we all need it.
