A letter that will never be read to whom it is for.................
This letter is for my oldest daughter. She will never read it though. I am blogging to unload all of the emotions I have spilling out of my heart. To my first born. The moment I held you in my arms, I knew that I could never feel a love like I felt at that moment. When I look at you I still feel that love. I am so wrought with emotion lately due to the changes that you are going through. I went through the same things that you are going through, but I didn't have parents or anybody for that matter to talk to. You do though and I am not fully understanding why you don't think that we understand. Probably because we are your parents and you are a teenager. We are giving you space to grow, to learn from your mistakes. We have guided you and taught you right from wrong. We have given you advice and have taught you our morals and values. What you take from that is your choice. It breaks my heart to think that you may choose to make so many of the same mistakes that I did and I can't do anything about it. Pray. Pray. Pray.....and of course, pray some more. I have faith that God will look out for you and hear you when you call on Him. I pray that you choose to call on Him daily. Life is going to throw you some trials, regardless of your faith, but being held by your Heavenly Father will make those trials fade a little easier. I love you and will always love you unconditionally. We will always tell you the truth about choices and consequences from those choices. But you are going to be doing the choosing. All we can do is have our arms open when you need us. Know that we are here for you........always.

i hope she does read this! i don't envy the parents of teenage girls. every young woman has a trigger...mine was home cooking or fresh baked cookies. my mom could always get me to sit down long enough to talk to me if she baked me some cookies or some fried chicken. and as long as she tried, i never doubted she loved me. although, we went for days or even weeks without talking to one another. hang in there!!! get her to 19 or 20 and you'll have your girl back! posted by

This pulls at my heartstrings. I, too, am the mother of teenage girls (read here). They are a joy and a hearthache all at the same time. I put my mom through the ringer. Looking back, I was so hard to live with, which gives me hope because now we are so close. Hang in there, Mom. You are doing the right thing. Geez...I sound like "Hey, Dad." haha! Love ya, Dwayne! posted by

Tracy, As I sit and read things like this, or that post Dana has about her daughter, I think about what my mom must say or think about me. I know that I am a very emotional, tough, and busy teenager, and sometimes forget to care about my mom who is just trying to keep up with me.
