Hey, I just wrote to you a few minutes ago before I read this post. I feel so bad that you are going through this the night before the shower. But let me just say this....
You have been anticipating this event for awhile now. You have been worried that you would mess it up. It's a very important event for you and for your daughter whom you love and want to please. Am I right so far?
Okay...it is completely normal for you to be nervous. Any person would be. It is not because you are not capable of this, it is because you are a normal mother who wants to make her daughter happy. I honestly would be nervous too. Does this mean that you can't do it? No, it doesn't. You can and you will. I know that you will make this a special day for your daughter. She knows what you have been going through and I am so sure that she appreciates how difficult this is going to be for you. Remember, it's OKAY if you make a mistake and it's OKAY if you are not perfect! You are a wonderful and loving Mom and that is what people will see tomorrow. I have so much faith in you Mystic, I really do. I remember not so long ago how fragile you were and how you wanted to give up. Now I see a much stronger woman who has hope again in her life. Applaud yourself and try not to look back. I will talk to you again in the am. Your friend, Mrs. C
