Letters to my Daughter

Dear Elena...

And that's how it began. On my only daughter's first birthday I began writing her letters. Sometimes I only get to it once a week, other times twice a day. I'd like to share these memories with my daughter down the road. I pay special attention to the little things that make me fall in love with her over and over again. These details tend to get lost with time. Myself, I have an awful memory. I write to her for her, for the memories, and for myself. I've been faithfully writing for 6 months. I just don't want to forget, the story of us. I realize that it's not for everyone but I hope sharing this will inspire someone else to do the same. But then maybe I'm just a sap...
