my beautiful daughter "Baby Mouse" |
The day she started smiling
for pictures is when I knew
that she had finally begun to see
herself the way I see her
Beautiful
Perfect
Deserving
She started loving
her curly hair
her curves
herself
She stopped avoiding mirrors
and started looking in them
Now she sees, not a collection of flaws,
but a bounty of treasures
I don’t know who showed her
the beauty of herself,
but I am forever grateful

and perhaps someone told her how they saw her enough she finally believed it...
this made me smile.
Amen to that. Self acceptance should be taught in kindergarten.
You, her, there's a double gladness here! Beautiful.
I really like how natural and straight-forward this one is.
Very cool, Lolamouse.
Hooray! She's a real beauty!
She certainly is beautiful and it is wonderful that she realises it
This is something we all wish to teach our children - but it is one of the most difficult things!
Wonderful piece, beautiful smile.
Bet when she looks in te mirror she sees your beautiful smile, mi amiga
Baby Mouse is indeed beautiful! I suspect you may have played a role in the evolution ...
