Heartfelt letter to my daughter: Love Letter to My Daughter

Love Letter to My Daughter

While I was pregnant I often wondered what kind of mother I would be and the thought of having a daughter, at times, scared me. I questioned my anxiety and quickly came to the understanding and truth that having a girl scared me because I was a daughter who was relentlessly trying to find herself. I hope to provide you with all my learnings so that I may guide you towards a path of acceptance, love and freedom.

Like many other mothers, I am sure, there are times that I stare at you and wonder if I will unknowingly make any damaging mistakes.  I don’t want this fear to complicate my role as a mother. I am not seeking for perfection but just a chance to raise a girl into a woman who is independent, confident in herself and lives with so much love and passion.

Dear sweet Savannah Rose,

I wish you could see yourself through my eyes and only then would you truly know how much I adore you.  Thank you for choosing me to be your mother and for granting me the special gift of raising you.   Coming into my life you instantly showed me what unconditional love feels like.  Being a mother to you is effortless and you make each passing day more and more bright.

You came without instructions and there are times when I reflect on how I am doing as your mother.  Always know that everything I say and do is because I love and care for you. As much as I am here to teach you, you are also here to teach me.  They say the role of a parent is to teach their children all about life. I have come to understand that children are here to teach parents what life is truly all about. Savannah, I have learnt so much from you already in such a short time.  The most astonishing thing for me is that I have learnt so much about ME since you have been born.

I am proud of so many things in my life but nothing beats being a mother to you. I am amazed by your sensitivity and pure heart. Your understanding and happiness. Your beauty truly runs deeper than the eye. The joy that consumes every cell of your body is unbelievable and your energy is absolutely contagious. You have taught me to laugh often because life is too short not to enjoy every moment of it. The day I had you was the day I began to heal my inner child. The day I began to look at life through a different lens. You make me a better person – someone who strives to live life each day with an open heart, with more understanding, with more acceptance of myself, with more awareness, with more happiness and with more love.

Always know that I am here for you without judgement and only with love. I accept every part of you and always, always, always know how very proud I am of you.

You can come to me for anything and know that there will never be judgement.  I am here to love and support you always. As your mother my role is to provide you with the qualities you will need in the big world.  Keep your heart wide open.  There is goodness all around you, you just have to look.  When you feel small in this big world just be still.  Find your centre, it will lead you to calmness and this is where all answers are found. Trust your gut and intuition – I promise you, it will never lead you in the wrong direction. Love yourself FIRST before anyone or anything. Be kind to yourself and know that the most important person in this world is YOU. Take care of YOU so you can then extend some of your loving energy outward.

From the moment you were born, you sparkled from the inside. Don’t ever let anyone dull that sparkle. Surround yourself with positive people who care, love, support and inspire you and push away from those that are toxic and negative.  In life, you will come across those people who will try with all their might to make you feel small or to make you believe you cannot do it. You CAN do it and can be anything you desire if you just fiercely believe in yourself.  I will always be your cheerleader and #1 fan.

I know the time will come when the pages of my life end but I know that you will be one of its most beautiful chapters. For this I am forever grateful.

Love mommy

Image: IStock

The day I held you in my arms for the first time, I promised myself that I would not let anything happen to you. You may blame me for being overprotective, but for me, your safety was above everything else.

From the little girl who used to ask me to chase monsters from under her bed, you have grown up to become a strong and independent woman, whom I am proud of. Your accomplishments make my chest swell with pride. Do you know? All my buddies at the Monday Club might have heard about you more than twice.

It makes me sad that we cannot spend time with each other like old times, but then again seeing all the great things you are doing in life cheers me up. Keep up the good work darling, and remember, no matter what, you will always have your old man rooting for you.

Your dad

2. Dear daughter,

I always thank God for giving me such an understanding and supporting daughter; you never threw tantrums and always supported me during hard times. Sometimes you even stepped up and took responsibility for your brother. Thank you for being such a perfect daughter.

You are not just my daughter, but my best friend too. I still remember how we used to dress up in matching outfits and set some serious mother-daughter goals. Even though I couldn’t buy expensive dresses or take you on an exotic vacation, you never complained. I always wonder what I have done to deserve you.

Today, I am writing this letter to thank you for all the love, respect and support you have been giving me. And I also want to tell you that I am there for you. Love you, dear.

Lots of love

Mom

3. Dear daughter,

My life changed the day you were born. I never knew my heart could beat for someone and that I would start caring for you and your future. Did you know dear? Your dad was known as the daredevil in the college because I never backed out of any challenge and was always ready to do anything for the adrenaline rush.

Days after you were born, I was challenged by my old college buddies to attempt a dangerous act. I agreed but the moment I stepped on my bike, your face flashed, and I couldn’t do it. That day I realized I have become a father and need to reset my priorities in life.

I am writing this letter to tell you how much you have changed my life; you turned me into a loving and kind person. I am thankful to God for blessing my life with an angel like you.

Your dad

4. Dear princess,

You might be surprised to find this letter from your father, but today I want to pour my heart out and tell you how much you mean to me.

I want to tell you that I love you from the bottom of my heart. You may not know, but you were the reason I began to come home early from work; you are also the reason I started to smile a lot more and get motivated to work hard to give you the life you deserve.

No matter what, I will always believe in you. You are smart and always made me proud of whatever you did in your life. You always worked hard and never took life for granted.

I hope life rewards you abundantly as you are the best and only deserve the best things in life.

Your loving dad

Congratulations! Today is a big day for you.

You made the whole family proud by getting into such a prestigious university. I do not doubt your judgment and capabilities, but worrying is a part of my job as a mother. So, I take this opportunity to tell you a few things which I wish I knew when I was off to college.

7. Dear daughter,

As you are about to enter a new phase in life, I want to tell you a little something about success.

You may have already heard quite a bit and might also have your own take on success, but this is for those times when you feel down and gloomy.

You should know that being successful doesn’t mean living without doubts or being happy all the time. It is about how you handle those doubts and struggles. Sometimes, your success can also be defined on how many times you had the courage to get up when you have hit rock bottom.
Life is not always fair and square; you will have proud moments as well as the not-so-proud moments. The key to a happy life is to stay humble during those proud moments and learn from the not-so-proud ones.

And when you’re not sure if you are doing the right thing or on the right path, then I am always there right by your side to help you chase those doubts away.

Your loving dad

8. Dear daughter,

Darling! Always remember a relationship is as simple as you make it. Always think positive and love abundantly. Be slow to anger and quick to forget, and no matter what may happen, never let things go out of you both.

I have full faith that you will be a loving wife and a caring mother. May God bless you with abundant happiness and good times.

Your loving mother

10 LOVE LETTERS FROM A BELOVED DAUGHTER — LIFE

If there is one gift that never goes out of style, it is the gift of heartfelt words in the shape of a letter. Letters are such a personal gift and you should only give them to people who really mean a lot to you.

Even if you don’t like writing letters, it’s still worth a try. It is much more personal and soulful than any gift that money can buy. So if your daughter is about to celebrate a special occasion — a birthday, a wedding, or the birth of your grandson — give her a piece of your heart by writing her a heartfelt letter saying how much you love her.

Below are examples of letters you can write to your daughter.

1. To my dear daughter. When you get older, I want you to be free to fly like a bird. Go there and chase your dreams. Let nothing stop you. Live life to the fullest and be sure that you will find happiness in everything you do. And when you risk making a name for yourself in this world, just know that I am always here for you. All you have to do is give me a call and I’ll be there for you — at the highest of the highs and the lowest of the lows. You will always be my baby and I will always be there when you need me.

2. In your youth you were always a premature little child. You have seen the world with such curiosity and wonder and I only hope that your view of the world will never change. See each day as a learning experience. Experience every moment to the fullest. Love freely and completely, but also keep some of that love for yourself. And at the end of the day, when you are tired and weary, know that I will always be there for you to guide and help you. You bring me so much joy in this life and I can only hope to help you find the same joy.

3. A mother’s love for her child is unlike anything else in the world. Knows neither the law nor pity. I dare at all and ruthlessly destroy everything that stands in this way. My dear daughter, in this life you will face challenges that you have never faced before. It won’t always be an easy road, and yet, I want you to have the strength and resilience to face them all. I can only hope that when you were still young under my wing, I taught you everything you needed to know in order to live. And in your travels, no matter how far you go, remember that I will always be in the place you call home. When you’re tired of what life has thrown at you, it’s me, your mother, who you can count on to help you get back on your feet. I love you.

4. Every time I see you, whether in person or at your posts, I can’t help but wonder how you’ve grown to be so strong and so beautiful. You used to be a small little child who could barely crawl and talk, but now I look at you — so graceful and elegant as an adult. While the world may see you as a strong, independent woman, remember that I have seen you grow up to be who you are today. You surprised me with your wisdom, even at a young age. And now that you’ve all grown up, I can’t help but be proud of you in so many ways. You spread your wings and flew, my love. I love you and want you to know that I have always had and always will.

5. When you entered my life, I must admit that I met you with a mixture of joy and anxiety. You were such a little bundle of joy that I didn’t know what to do with myself if I wasn’t good enough for you. But as you grew up, you showed me what it really means to be a parent. You showed me what love really is. On your birthday, not only a child was born, but also a parent who will fight tooth and nail to bring you a better life. I can’t tell you how much of my heart you fill. I can’t tell you how proud I am of you. You were an incredible little miracle who grew up to be a wonderful young woman. I love you so much!

6. I still remember the elation when I felt that you were joining our family. I couldn’t believe that I would be blessed with such a beautiful girl. The day you were born, I couldn’t help but cry tears of joy. I felt like my heart was overflowing with so much love. You were such a wonderful little child — curious and smart, demanding and strong. You wanted peace and I wanted to give it to you. You were so sweet, and even more so now that you are all grown up. I just want you to know that from the moment you were created to the time you are reading this letter, I have loved you every step of the way. You will always be my baby, my beautiful little miracle, the light of my life.

7. My dear daughter, when you go out into the world, I want to share with you the wisdom that I believe you will need on your journey. No doubt I know you are smart and quick-witted, but I just thought I’d share with you some of the lessons I learned in my life when I was your age. First, love freely, but love yourself above all else. You can find boys who promise to give you the world but always know that you can be as capable as they are. Don’t rely on anyone but your own mind to get what you want in this world. Second, use the gifts you have been given. Treat your body with respect and never settle for second place. You are the greatest gift to me and I want you to know that you deserve only the best. And finally, when times get tough and you want to get some rest, you can always come to my house. You will be safe and cared for, as always when you were a child. I love you and wish you all the best in your life journey.

8. When you were born, next to happiness, I experienced a feeling of fear. With all the bad things going on in this world, I was worried about how I can protect you from all of this. Like a helpless little child, I did everything I could to make sure you have everything you need. But I knew that one day you would grow up and want to explore that dangerous world from which I wanted to protect you. Since you are making a name for yourself in this world, I hope you are happy. I hope you find the path that will lead you to success and happiness. And since you are living your dreams, know that I am always there for you when you need me.

9. No words can describe how much you mean to me, my daughter. You are and always will be the greatest gift I have ever received in this life. I admit that I was strict with you when you were little, but it was all because of my fear that the world might harm you. Over time, I realized that I could not protect you from everything, and you soon grew up to learn how to protect yourself in this dangerous world. And I’m so proud of how smart and strong you are. My baby, I want you to know that no one in this world can love you like I do. I want the best from you and I want you to be the best you can be. I love you with all my heart, my dear daughter.

10. To my daughter, who is now a mother. I want you to know that being a mother is incredibly difficult, not because taking care of a child is difficult, but because of the constant fear that something might hurt your little girl. When you were little, I knew that I had to put all my energy into making sure you were always okay. And now you know what it’s like. When you are raising your own girl, I want you to know that your mom is always there for you. I will always be here to guide you and give you advice when you need it. I will always welcome you with open arms when you need help raising a child because I understand how difficult it can be. My dear daughter, I know you will be a great mother because we just have to admit that you have learned from the best!

Bring a smile (and maybe some tears) to your daughter’s eyes on her special day by writing her one of these letters. Of all the gifts she will receive, a heartfelt letter is one that she will cherish for the rest of her life!

Plot Letters from the front

From many soldiers, only letters remained as a keepsake for relatives. is in the public domain

We continue to publish letters that veterans sent to relatives during the Great Patriotic War. Our folk project received a response in the hearts of readers. We are grateful that you send copies of letters and stories about your heroes to the editorial office. Anastasia Barsuk, a 11th grade student from the village of Zheblakhty, told us another story about her countryman and his descendants.

«Dear family members»

Artemy Afanasyevich Marakov died in early August 1944 while crossing the Vistula near the Polish cities of Pulawy and Kazimierz Dolny. The last letter that his family received from the front is now kept by his daughter Albina Artemyevna. In it, he blesses her, and calls all relatives such an unusual, but somehow very kind word «family people.»

“Hello, dear family members Liza, Alya, Nina. I send you my humble respect and heartfelt greetings. My first duty is to tell you about my life. I live now nothing from the hospital was discharged 9June. I went to the front on June 19, and so Lisa, farewell, alive, I will write, but don’t remember me bad. Alya, I send you a parental blessing to grow up and listen to Lisa’s mother. Tell your mother to give her blessing to go to the front a second time. Well, Lisa, stay and wait for me. Alive I will not forget you say hello to all relatives and sign. Liza, I can’t get a single letter from you. Well, until goodbye, I remain alive and healthy, and I wish you happiness in life ”(the spelling of the letter has been preserved).

Wife Lisa, left with two daughters, worked tirelessly in the rear. And she covered the whole village. She made new clothes for fellow countrymen from old and worn things. She wrote to her husband at night, but for some reason, as he reported, news from home did not reach him.

In the distant Polish land

Already after the war, daughter Alya, who almost did not remember her father, but received a blessing from him in her last letter, to her request where he was buried, received the following answer: «According to the Polish agency Interpress» , Warsaw, Marakov Artemy Afanasyevich, who died on August 3, 1944 in Poland, was buried in one of the mass graves at the Soviet military cemetery in the city of Kazimierz Dolny, Lublin Voivodeship, Poland. His name is included in the lists of the second edition of the book «Memory».

Also, at the same time, it was reported from the archive that after the end of military operations in the city of Kazimierz Dolny, a large cemetery of Soviet army soldiers was founded, who died in the area and were first buried in different places nearby. Here are the burial places of 8648 soldiers and officers. The cemetery is located in a conspicuous place and surrounded by a stone fence, at the entrance there is an inscription in two languages: «Park — the cemetery of the soldiers of the Soviet army in Kazimierz Dolny.»

In 1990, Albina Artemyevna visited that cemetery, gave her last bow to her father. Now she, having worked for a long time as a physical education teacher in Abakan, has long been on a well-deserved rest. And the family of war veteran Marakov continues in his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
