Raising Brooklyn

Brooklyn you are full of life and potential. Your determined and strong willed, confident and awesome. You are talented and wonderful and a total spit fire...... I have spent countless nights worrying that I don't show you enough love and that I am screwing you up. I use to worry myself to sleep about boys, homework ect and now I toss and turn at night replaying my parenting errors and worrying that you will have low self esteem all thanks to moi. I love you kid, I wish you knew that the things I ask of you aren't to be bossy or mean or controlling its because I always only have your best interests at heart and I think it is what would be the best way for u. I know at 5 you don't understand that and we fight incessantly but dear girl please know I love u from the bottom of my heart and till the end of the earth and back and I only want what is best for you. So please listen when I ask you to put your coat on cause its cold and please stop taking that tone with me, I worry I am raising a disrespectful child. Please eat your cauliflower but only one bite and please stop hurting the dog like that I tell you one day he is going to leave A scar on your pretty little face. I love you kid your exactly like I was I know it but can't we work together so we can get through these years without daddy taking us to the ring. I love u girl!!! My light, my life my heart my soul my love! Xoxoxoxo
