My Dear Echo,
Over the years, I wished I could print the blogs I kept for you and Zoe when you were little. I finally looked into it and found away. I just could not bring myself to print it without a final entry. I don't even know what I can say to capture the enormity of your uniqueness and the awe I feel toward your amazing personality.
You recently turned 12. You are still the same epic explosion of joy, warmth, and reason. You still want papa to open his "cuddle hole" when chilling on the couch with his arm around you, watching shows. When I tuck you in, you ask if I'll snuggle with you, and when I do, you tell me to cuddle you, and I do, until I fall asleep.
I love you so very much and want to be present every step of the way as you grow up, make chooices, and live your life. I want to help you raise the babies you want to have and watch you bring endless joy to everyone around you. My sunshine.
Love, Mom.
