Wisdom for Our Daughters - Spinoff of Melissas Post

I have a letter or series of letters I am writing my daughter. Mostly about who she is now as a little girl. But there are many things in there that I at the right time can bring her information.

I would really have to go back a read the letter(s) to pull things out.

One thing I do want her to know is that "You are not me, you are you're own individual, a remarkable young woman with massive amounts of determination, don't ever let your need to accomplish something go. Does not matter what the task is."...I have never known anyone who has the determination this girl does. I encourage her and show her how to focus it on the right things.

DVMMOM...I just check out your link...I love it! Especially number five and fish lips photos!

I came across this a few weeks ago, and I thought it was fabulous. And I have a 4 year old daughter myself, so I hope as she gets older, this will be something I can pass on to her. :) It's not a book, but it really rings true (at least for me).

I have a similar blog thing-um specifically for Dad's of daughters. I'm posting it now per your request ;)

The book "Wings of Silver" by Jo Petty.
My late Dad gave me this as a child. As a daughter.
And he wrote a special note to me, inside the book cover.
I have treasured it always, especially after he died.
My book is dog eared and yellowed and tagged with bookmarks and so very well used.

I don't know if the book is still in print.
But you can search for it. Amazon, or perhaps Barnes and Noble, Ebay, etc.

This is it:

This is the one I have.

I still have my book from my Dad.
I will give it to my daughter, as well.
