Important stuff

The ironic thing was I had been thinking of how to document things I want Emily to know. I had been mulling over a post in my head to blog. And frankly it will still come. I have been thinking a lot about the things I want her to know my heart as she gets old and want to make sure she knows them as she grows up. But then this was posted as someone's facebook status tonight and it brought many tears to my eyes as I read it. Of course I am going to leave it up and have Paul read it. I often think of the kind of relationship I want them to have. However I often have to take a step back and pray. I have to realize that what I am missing most as I think of Emily and her daddy is the relationship I often did not have with my father. I wanted a lot more than I was given at times and of course I want even more for my little girl. One of the many reasons I married Paul was I knew he would be an amazing father and fill the role to the best of his ability. He will not be perfect and will have to ask for forgiveness from Emily at times I am sure. But I know he will try. And that effort is what makes so much difference. Anyways this is a sweet tear jerker and good summary of things I want for my little girl.
