Most Amazing Girl

.hmmessage P { margin:0px; padding:0px } body.hmmessage { FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY:Tahoma } Hey Soul, Ive been thinking of you latley, mostly of the tittle "Soul". I can randomly say, "that was a very Soul thing to say/do" and My whole family will know exactly what I am talking about. I am not sure how it honestly came to be that you meant so much to me, but I do know that you have been an enormous blessing in my life. The things you have told me and the times you have listened to me have meant the world.
You gave me a way of thinking that I couldnt have found anywhere else. You teach me by what you do rather than whatyou say. You are constantly and example to me. I Remember last time you came, the way you acted with meagan and Jarom. It was practicaly a revilation, yet a flashback at the same time. You are such a natural Gaurdian, and parent. I see the way you teach them. you are Firm, yet loving, and I remember when it was me in their shoes. I remember the times you would teach me things, im not  sure either of us relized were being taught. I can think about the bonds that exist between you and I, and my siblings and you. Thank you for the person you are, and all the wonderfullthings that emulate from you. Thank you for never leaving me, and always being concerned for the welfare of just one, yet constantly knowing about the group. I am so greatfull for you. Thank you for your love, and for your hugs and for your knowledge.
Thank you forever
 your little girl.


This was in response to a letter i wrote "my lil girl" for her 15th bday.  I wasn't able to be there for it and it made me a lil down, so i wrote her about all our fun times together and how much she's meant to me over the years.

This is the same girl that brought me ot this site almost 3 years ago.  Without her i never would have come here.  Looking back I'm not overly sure that would have been a bad thing.  Would have avoided possibly one of the worst experiences of my life and quite a bit of anger and frustration with a great many of the members of the site.  How ever i also might not have met one of my best friends, so i think i can accept the trade off.

I don't have kids of my own, and i've come to the very strong impression i won't ever, but knowing all the time, energy and love i've out into this one lil girl has made a difference means that i don't need a kid of my own cause i've already rasied one who's turned out amazing.  Strong in spirit, faith and morals.  Hard working, meek mild and humble she's an example for me and all just how a life should be lived.

I'm so proud of her and so very humble in her presence and knowing i had a hand in helping form this miracle on earth makes me just a lil bit proud.

This letter was an awesome tribute to one who is respected as a parent.  It is something all parents at any stage or style hope to receive. You cherish it as you should.  Thank you for sharing.

It is sad to me to hear you feel you might not have children of your own. I have read some of your blog posts that convey your longing for children, and I believe you when you say you feel that may not be part of your life.


So many children need unconditional love, and when there is an adult willing to give these children love, I wish it were easier for a man to be that adult.


I'm just ranting here--I don't know, or expect, you are considering this. But for those who are, and are men, it seems to be almost impossible.


I loved your little girl's letter (at 15, she is no longer a little girl!). I hope she continues to bring you a sense of accomplishment, even though it is bittersweet and painful. You obviously have given her great gifts, including your insights, but even more, your unconditional love.  I envy her, and you, for that.


Good luck to you, Soul.
