FROM THE ASHES

My daughter – how beautiful you have grown
A woman of strength, confidence and compassion
Though the journey has not been easy
You endured

My daughter – in your eyes I see hope
Independence, conviction and determination
You embraced life and made it uniquely yours
You survived

Though fear was ever present
Your vanquished it with your smiles
Head held high. Laughter your protective armor
So sweet the sound. So strong the shield

My daughter – how beautiful you have grown
There is strength in your character
Kindness in your heart
Goodness in your soul
You are my inspiration!
