Dear Mama,
Since I’m only
2yrs old, I hope you don’t mind that I had Daddy help me with this letter. I
wanted to buy you something pretty but daddy said that we didn’t have any
money. What he meant to say was that he didn’t have any money because where
would I get money from? Daddy said that today was a special day for all the
mommies because all the mommies had kids. I think he called it Mother’s Day but
can I call it Mama Day? Mama, I like wearing your shoes because they make me
tall like you. I like when you comb my hair because you make me pretty like
you. Mama, I like when I’m crying and you pick me up because I feel the safest
when I’m in your arms. When I don’t feel good, you always make me better so I
can play with Mimi. Mama, if you haven’t noticed, I like to talk a lot but that’s
because you always listen to me. I really like going to church and singing the
songs because you smile soo big as you watch me clap my hands; letting me know
that I make you proud. But the best part is that you always let me sleep right
next to you, even though I have my own bed and Daddy gets upset. I don’t think
that Daddy understands that sleeping besides you is the closes that I can get
to when I was inside of your stomach. Mama, guess what? Since today is Mama
Day, I’m going to be extra good, eat all my food and not spill my Sippy Cup BUT I’m still going to crawl in the
bed, next to you and snuggle.
Happy Mama’s Day!
ARIANA JAMES
