I’ve been trying to write a letter to the Munchkin all week. But I find myself without words.
She’s simply so very amazing. There are no words. Being near her, even for a short time, has left me somewhat speechless. How has she grown so quickly? Where have the years gone? Where is the baby? Where is the toddler? Where is the preschooler? How is she now registered for kindergarten in the fall?
It’s been an amazing whirlwind of thought and emotion over this past week. For the most part, it’s been an okay experience. I’ve shed a few tears. But I’ve mostly just been looking through pictures of this visit and visits past and just generally being… amazed.
I am very thankful that I have been allowed to be a presence in her life. I can’t take credit for anything more than the shape of her eye or her stubborn streak. But I can be proud of the girl she has grown into and the woman she will become.
I also have some big news to share (no babies, guys) but for now, I just need everyone to know that my beautiful daughter is the best girl on the planet. End of discussion.
My name is Jenna. I blog here, 
It’s comforting to know that you have a tought time knowing what to write to your daughter. I have a difficult time knowing what to write to my son’s birthmom. It’s really hard to put all the emotions into words.
You ARE blessed to be able to be in her life! Just as blessed as she is to have you in it.

I couldn’t possibly advise you on how to write your letter . . . but I love what you just wrote here. It’s filled with motherly love.

I know this is old, but I am playing catch up. I just wanted to thank you for this post. I have the hardest time writing a letter to her. How do you express yourself to a 9 year old? I guess it is just comforting to know I am in good company.
