Dear Ivy:
I want to write down some of the things that I hope for you throughout your life.
-The thing I want more than anything else is for you to know that your Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ live, and love you. I want you to know how to recognize the Holy Ghost and find answers to your questions through study and prayer.
-I hope that you are able to help others recognize the spirit the way that you are able to.
-I want you to be someone who looks for the good, and helps others do the same. I hope that you can always be happy, even if you've had a bad day.
-I want you to love life! I want you to dream big, to take chances, and to accomplish everything that you were meant to do with your life!
-I want you to have a close relationship with your family. I hope that you will always be close to your brothers, dad, and me. I hope that we will have a special relationship with each other and always love each other.
-I hope that you know that I love you forever! Please talk to me about everything-happy, sad, confusing, exciting....I want to be a part of your life through it all!
-I want you to love to learn. I want you always be looking for spiritual and temporal knowledge, each type of learning will enhance the other.
-I want you to marry somebody in the temple who makes you happy. I want you to marry somebody who has a testimony as strong as yours, and makes you a better person.
-I want you to be able to recognize your gifts, and that you will be able to see your potential and path through life.
Ivy, I am sure that I will be adding things to this list through your life. Your dad and I prayed for you in our family, and we are so glad that you are here. I love you more than I could ever tell you, and can't wait to see you grow up!
Love, mom
