My Secret Midnight Bloom

I am so thankful for you and what an amazing, understanding and supportive person you have grown to become. I remember being pregnant with you as if it was yesterday. You came as a surprise. I was six months pregnant and no one knew but me. I felt this before yet no one believed me. The nurses did an ultrasound and kept telling me to go home because for some reason they found nothing. Doctor said you were hiding not wanting to be disturbed with anyone so no one believed I was pregnant until the doctor got involved some time later. By the time I started showing you were already due to make your entrance in the world.  You were so small but birthing was painful. My midnight baby you wouldn't take your eyes off of me even now, you are still making sure I am cared for. You have such a big heart, always looking out for me.


I have been thinking about what to say to you in this letter.  My heart is overwhelmed and full just looking back on how far we have come. As I write this letter to you, I don't know when you will read it but when you do I want you to Invision me right there telling you this.


Today as you start this new phase in life. I have full faith that you will be a loving and caring mother, friend and partner.  Remember, as you read this letter:


  • I love you to the moon and back.

  • Tough times are seasons of life that never last, but tough people do.

  • Take every day with a deep breath.

  •  I am aware of your struggles, this is why I decided to share a few secrets with you.

  • So my love, treat the bad days just like the good ones, this will help you deal with any problem that comes your way. 

  • Hard days will come but never lose hope as there is always light at the end of the tunnel. You may not be able to see it right now, but trust me when it’s time you will. 

  • I am proud of how you are handling life in your terms, keep up the good work, and always remember it takes a village 

  • Build your village and reach out when you need to.



Love Always

Mama G.
