Thoughts to Share with a Wonderful Daughter
I bought this book, A Blue Mountain Arts Collection, originally with the intention of giving it to my own daughter. However, since I was unable to have my own children, I decided to keep it anyway because I am always looking for inspiration. This book is filled with short verses, letters and poems appropriate for daughters of all ages. Created as a part of the “Language of” Series, Blue Mountain Arts assembled this wonderful collection from over 40 authors including William Shakespeare, Louisa May Alcott, Margaret Mead and Naomi Judd. My favorite comes American Poet, Susan Polis Schutz:
To My Beautiful Daughter, I Love You
You are a shining
example of what a
daughter can be –
loving and compassionate
beautiful and good
honest and principled
determined and independent
sensitive and intelligent.
You are a shining
example of what every
parent wishes their
daughter were
and I am so very
proud of
you.
This book is definitely a keeper and you’ll want to give it to your daughter for either her Sweet 16 or High School graduation.
