Your Sparkle Is Never Lost

This Song of the Week selection is for my brave, determined, fierce, kind, loving, smart little queen of dancing, Kitty. This has been a tough semester, but you do tough things all the time, and I know you'll do it again. Please take my word for it as the person who has known you the longest: your sparkle may have been misplaced in the noise, but it's never lost. It's always been a part of achingly beautiful you, both inside and out. Don't ever listen to those who underestimate you because of the pretty wrapping. They were never worth your energy. It's easy for some to write off the vivacious girl, but you are The Whole Package, and you always have been. Your quiet strength continually inspires me and it's a joy to watch as you strive to grow and challenge yourself for more. There's never been anyone who deserves it as much as you. Believe it. Reach out and take it, little star.

Now that Reading Week is over, you're halfway through this bitch, and you got this! Set your sights, wiggle your butt, and fire that ball down the lane. You knew how to do it then and you still do. 

The highs are to be celebrated, the lows are learning opportunities, the dancing is for joy and the sparkle is in your soul. How you navigate your journey is what makes me proud of the woman my little girl has grown into. Really look into her face and remember there are more of these in your near future, no matter how you get there. I love you, beyond...xox
