Losing Morgan, Yet again

For my daughter,

I just wanted to take the chance to thank you for the fun week we spent with you. Fabrice enjoyed getting to know you better, we both were happy to meet some of your great friends, and I was thrilled to be able to spend some time with my favorite daughter, ever.

I can't tell you how proud I am of the young woman you are becoming. Not only are you absolutely gorgeous, but intelligent, kind, and talented as well (although I am jealous that your Grandma and Grandpa got the tiger!!! LOL).

I can't wait to be able to spend time with you again, hopefully for your Christmas break.

I love so much every minute that I spend with you, even when we argue!!!

Every time I have to say goodbye, it's like loosing you forever, and my heart breaks. I can't help it, that's how I feel. I spent so much time and energy, and dedicated so much into raising you for the first thirteen years of your life, and I feel like nobody appreciates it. I wish that sometimes someone would telle what a good job I did raising you before you left for Wisconsin to be more independent.

Oftentimes, I thought that my biggest mistake in life was dating your father. Not that he's so terrible, he's just not the right man for me. Now I know that my biggest mistake in life was giving in to your repeated wishes to spend time living with your Dad. I NEVER once thought you'd all decide to keep you there, against my will, and no matter what I want.

I want you to be happy, more thing anything else in the world. And almost everything I do is done with that in mind. I can't help it that it hurts me so much to not have you with me. and I can't help but still be hurt for the things that some people have done to me over the years. Not you, of course, I just would feel so much better if I saw you more. I am never happier than when I am with you (although teaching makes me happy, too), and I am never more sad than when you are torn away from me, yet again. It hurts so badly, and I miss you so much.

But KNOW in your heart of hearts that I want you to be happy, and so, I am doing whatever I can to help you achieve that happiness and still maintain a healthy, happy mother-daughter relationship with you.

I am so proud of you, my beautiful, intelligent, artistic and kind daughter.

You are the greatest daughter any other could ever have, and I am the lucky one who had you!!! Thank you for that.

Love,
Mom
