Wherever You Are

I bought a book a few months ago and have done my best to read it to the girls every night before they go to bed. It explains that no matter where the girls go, their Daddy's love will always find them. I wanted to share the book with you; that way when the girls are older, they will have this little piece of their childhood during such a hard time.


Wherever You Are...my love will find you
By: Nancy Tillman

"I wanted you more than you will ever know, so I sent love to follow wherever you go.
It's high as you wish it. It's quick as an elf. You'll never outgrow it...it stretches itself.
So climb any mountain...climb up to the sky! My love will find you. My love can fly.
Make a big splash! Go out on a limb! My love will find you. My love can swim!
It never gets lost, never fades, never ends...
if you're working...
or playing...
or sitting with friends...
You can dance 'til you're dizzy...
paint 'til you're blue...
There's no place, not one, that my love can't find you.
And if someday you're lonely, or someday you're sad, or you strike out at baseball, or think you've been bad...
Just lift up your face, feel the wind in your hair. That's me, my sweet baby, my love it right there.
In the green of the grass...
in the smell of the sea...
in the clouds floating by...
at the top of the tree...
in the sound crickets make at the end of the day...
'You are loved. You are loved. You are loved,' they all say.
My love is so high, and so wide and so deep, it's always right there, even when you're asleep.
So hold your head high and don't be afraid to march to the front of your own parade.
If you're still my small babe or  you're all the way grown, my promise to you is you're never alone.
You are my angel, my darling, my star...
and my love will find you, wherever you are."
