Dear Child,
You are the gift of our love and we cannot wait to see you, hold you & cuddle you. We have been sharing this bond for last 8 months and by each passing day the bond is growing stronger. There is still time to meet you in person, but today I make my vows to you. The vows I intend to keep forever.
I promise to love you unconditionally, to nurture you and protect you. I promise to hold you when you are scared and make you laugh when you are sad. I promise to support you in all that you do, even when the world stands against you.
I promise to celebrate your victories and stay with you when you lose. I will be there to encourage you when you try new things. I will be your courage when you are scared. And, together we will beat the odds and win.
I will teach you all that I know and help you expand your horizons beyond mine. You will be educated but I will make sure that you learn wisdom too. I will teach you compassion and kindness, love and care. For without it our lives don’t matter.
I made you from scratch and I promise to tell you everyday that I love you and cherish you. For infinity and beyond I will fulfill my vows to you, my child.
Love you,
Maa
Natasha planned to get this letter printed and post in on her child’s wall and to read them to her child every night. Such is a mother’s love.

(7th June 2018 - 20:52)I got a sneak-peek at an upcoming picture book that touched me much like this letter. It’s true, that mother’s bond starts way before a birth day, and lasts beyond our time here.
Dishki
(10th June 2018 - 10:19)I should definitely check out that picture book. Glad that you liked the post.
Well, there is nothing greater than a mother-child bond. 🙂

(27th April 2018 - 16:05)Beautiful !! It is rare we say these to your kids but it is also necessary they know this.
Dishki
(27th April 2018 - 22:59)Yes, we should tell our kids more often that we love them and we are always there for them.
