Promise

- I'll try to sew you Halloween costumes as long as you'll let me.  Especially onesies with animal ears.
- I'll write you letters each year of your life, to look back on and know how much you were loved even before you could understand.
- Your friends can feel welcome at our house and feel safe on their bad days.  I hope you learn to comfort others and sit with them in their sadness.
- We can have cheat days and eat all the cookies we make.
- I hope you learn to love life, and live fully, and find a purpose that sets your heart on fire. 
- I pray that you rest in Him all your days.  When you fall, that you'll turn and seek Him.  That you'll be safe.
