My wish for Emma is that she never worries about her beauty. My wish is for her to know that she is made perfectly by God (with a little of Clark and I mixed in).
It breaks my heart when I hear on the news that a twenty something girl had over 10 medical enhancing surgeries in one day. As a mom and a woman I want to say, dear child (because she is still someone’s’ child), no matter what you do on the outside what you need to fix is in your heart and head.
My wish is that when Emma looks in the mirror she sees a beautiful person reflecting back. That she knows no surgeon’s knife can make it better because she is one of a kind for what she has inside of her soul.
My wish for Emma is that she knows that women come in all shapes and sizes. I want her to know that I am not a 10 but I am a real woman and a mom.
My wish for Emma is that she knows that life will give some wears, tears and scars but it will also give love, laughter and hope.
My wish for Emma is that she knows she is smart and books are buddies. My wish for her is that she has the self-confidence to say, “Yes, I can and I know how.”
My wish for Emma and ultimate prayer is that when she sees herself that she knows she was made in love.
Really beautiful, Kath. I hope she always will know all of that as well!
