Mother/Daughter Communication


Here's a note from way back, 1966.
It was written by a woman to her recently born daughter, who was the first of what would be a clan of four siblings. This note is of particular importance because, though it may seem like something any mother would write to their child, I am sure the sentiment is unique for her. A first-time mother is bathed in emotion and pours well wishes for their offspring, especially the first.

A rough translation:
"You are N., a beautiful flower, and the perfume of your essence I would like to have. You are beautiful, sweet, You are my darling flower, The Lord takes care of you and He guides your every step in the future, Never forget your mother, who loves you more than anything else in the world, Mom"
