Dear little girl,

I have not been very kind to you and I owe you an apology. I have put myself first, trying to shut you out of my mind and my life. That wasn't fair to you, nor was it very nice. I never meant to hurt you or make you feel like you had been forgotten. I am always trying to protect you from others who don't understand that I forget I don't always understand either.

I am sorry that I have judged your colorings so harshly, I know that you do not focus on the lines but how the colors make you feel.

I am sorry that I have limited your bubble baths to once a month. You deserve time to relax, play, and venture into that underwater world you love so much.

I am sorry that I have taken replaced your pink toenail polishes with my red. I know you aren't fond of such dark colors, preferring bright cheerful polishes.

I am sorry, sweet little girl, for mocking your belief in magic. I know that it is important to you, for it is with magic that transforms you to another world, in which animals/toys talk, leprechauns bring luck, fairies can fly, wishing wells only need a penny to make your dreams come true, and everyone is naturally good.

I will do my best to not bury you with work, stress, and adult-foolishness. I will no longer subject you to guys who I know do not respect your needs, desires, and fears. I promise, little girl, to make you one of my priorities until I meet the right One who wants you for his own.
