I decided to share a letter someone very special wrote to me. Be inspired, encouraged and above all else empowered.
Dear Andreka,
I would like to start by saying "I love you". I know sometimes I don't say it as often as I should but I really do. Your smile is amazing. There are so many things I love about you so the question is where do I END this? Although, you have been a mother for almost two years now. I'm honored by your resilience. I know you sometimes feel alone but, you are powerful. The word "Black Queen" is an understatement. I see you every night and every morning making things happen for Nubian. I feel your silent tears roll down your cheeks some nights as you ask yourself "what does the future hold for us"? It's hard sometimes to get you to realize you're one of a kind. Your openness and integrity is revered and shunned by many. Don't let that stop you from being you. I love how you are with Nubian, hanging on to her every word like it's your first time hearing it. Your attention to her every need is priceless. Don't let your thoughts and fears make you miss out on the next chapter in your life. Nubian will be fine. The best is yet to come. On this special Mother's Day and every day you WIN. Keep moving forward with your goals, hopes and dreams. You will make it. All the things you prayed for you haven't lost. Keep smiling and focusing on the very person that gives you a reason to breath. I hope this letter lifts your spirit and help you realize just how important you are to the ones who truly love you and know you best. I've watched you grow year after year. There is nothing you can't accomplish if you only believe in yourself.
Love Always,
Andreka S. Bryant
