TheIceGal: A letter to my Litu humans

To my Litu Humans,

Now that y'all cannot read, I hope this letter gets to y'all someday.

I've always heard that kids come with so many changes it is impossible to remain unchanged after getting them. You probably do not know this but it is true! One day you will experience this. I pray that I will be here to see the love in your eyes. A love that will go to all ends to see a smile on a tiny little face.

Our little lady, when you came along, the joy in my heart was unbearable! I thought I had experienced all emotions till when I first laid eyes on you. What beauty! What grace! Your elegance when you glide (run) across the room is captivating. There is such an aura of calmness you command it scares the daylight out of me. You my little lady have so much greatness within you! Do not settle for anything less than greatness.

Sugar Bunny, you little cartoon! Everything about you is evidence of God's faithfulness. From the first month I couldn't come close to you because you needed time to get used to this world I knew there was something world shaking about you. You came to this world with your fists clenched, ready to knock out anything that stood in your way to thrive. So the fevers and had no winning chance. You have been taking life by the horns every day, looking it straight in its eyes and claiming it! Your little screams calm the storms that come. You my little sugar bunny brighten up our lives! I try to remember a life with you not in it, I can’t.

My little tornado, my goodness you will be such a force to be reckoned with. There is so much personality in you, it is beautiful. I see nothing ever coming between you and what you want to achieve! Nothing! Our little miracle. I see you have decided to take after your father, lead your elder siblings, Isolait! Show them what courage looks like, what taking charge is, what determination brings, show them how to love hard. Show them that all things are possible through Christ! Show them that you are a tornado, my little tornado!

I know 3 weddings I will definitely NOT be planning :)! Because I will be the aunt at the back of the church crying my eyes out wondering how on earth you grew up so fast! Feeling all sorts of emotions but overwhelmed with pride! Proud that you are all grown and that I saw y'all from the first day!
