dear Mikki and Katie….
one day, when i finally let you, you will leave the front door of our house, step off the very last step, and walk your own path…your own journey. {yes, i am currently searching desperately on EBAY for the magic potion that will make you want to stay at home with your mama for the rest of your life, but i have yet to find a seller with reliable feedback} therefore, i feel the need to prepare you for this journey, and in many ways, your Daddy and i do that every single day in little ways that even we, ourselves, are not even cognizant of.
on this journey to find yourself…to find your own path, there will be times when you feel completely isolated and alone. and yes, that very feeling is actually part of finding out who you are and what you are capable of doing. and, just talking from experience, know that your search for who you genuinely are never really ends. ever. more importantly, know that whatever metaphoric or literal avenue you take, you can always come home.
all my love darlings,
mommy 
p.s: warning: as a hormonally wretched pre-teen and teenager you will float in and out of spiritual enlightenment…thinking one day that you know completely everything there is to know about the world {i say ONE day, but when you are an adolescent a lot of “one days” will be lumped together into several, so you will feel infinite intellectual illumination for approximately 1, 095.7266 days give or take} and the next day you may fall flat on your face and not understand anything.
p.p.s: daily mantra….”whether we realize it or not,we are always on a spiritual journey- even when we feel most lost”…{post.secret}
