My promises to you -- my girl, my love, my heart, my soul, my silly, my worry, my happy, my everything
I promise to dance in the rain with you
I promise to make you laugh till your belly hurts
I promise I will listen - I will try to understand
I promise to hold you when you wake in the night, when you are hurt, when you are sad, when you need to know how special you are
I promise to let go when you are ready to go on your own - even when I'm scared
I promise to encourage you and to teach you the importance of perseverance
I promise to giggle when you give me raspberries
I promise to play peek-a-boo and patty cake and hide-and-go-seek over and over and over again
I promise to teach you the importance of kindness, to model its virtue, to praise it when you show it to others
I promise to tell you how smart you are every chance that I get
I promise be open
I promise to sing, sing loud, sing often
I promise to read to you ...everyday
I promise to teach you tolerance, to help you to find the beauty in the world, and in the people who fill it
I promise to support you through the challenges you face
I promise to chase away the monsters under you bed
I promise to give you extra bubbles in your bath
I promise to sneak a cookie in your lunch from time to time
I promise to have band aids in my bag...the kind that come with kisses
I promise to hold your hand for as long as you will let me
I promise to love you...always
I promise....my girl, my love, my heart, my soul, my silly, my worry, my happy, my everything
