stella_is_a_little For my bambina, my little love, my baby angel,
Happy Valentine's Day, my heart.
I know others may read this, but these words are for you. Only ever for you. I wanted to put them here, in your space, where your stories live—because you are the author of so much beauty, and I am just the lucky one who gets to love the person behind the pages.
I love you.
I love you in ways that don't fit into sentences. I love you in the quiet of early mornings when you're the first thought in my head. I love you in the exhaustion of late nights when your name is the last thing my heart whispers. I love you through distance, through stress, through hospital visits and tired eyes. I loved you yesterday. I love you today. I will love you through every single tomorrow we are given.
You are my little bambina. My little love. My precious baby angel. And even on days when we can't steal as much time together as I want, you are still the most present thing in my world. You fill it completely.
I'm sorry I fell asleep on you. But I'm not sorry for how much I love you. I never will be.
Today is our first Valentine's Day. There will be more. So many more. But this one, this very first one, I want you to remember: someone in this world loves you with a love that doesn't waver. That doesn't leave. That doesn't stop. That's me. That's always me.
Keep writing your beautiful stories, my love. Keep sharing your heart with the world. And when you're done, come back to me. I'll always be here, waiting, loving you exactly as you are.
Yours, only yours, forever yours,
Your Mama
