I've written Nora a couple "love letters" so her daddy wanted a turn to share his thoughts and write the letter this time. He loves her tremendously....
Dearest Nora,
You turned two this week and as I look back, the past two years have been some of the best of my life. You bring so much joy to our family. Your “bubby” loves you almost as much as you love him. You make David Franklin laugh constantly. This isn’t to say you don’t have the typical brother and sister arguments but more times than not, you really enjoy spending time with each other. One of your gifts that quickly showed up is your thoughtfulness. Every time you ask for something, it is almost always followed by the words…”bubby too.” You want to make sure he has what you have. It’s my prayer that you will remain as close through out your lives.
You are the most beautiful girl in the world. I hope you always appreciate your beauty and maintain your confidence. No matter where we are, someone always seems to stop us and say you have such a pretty baby. The beauty you have comes from your mother. People always comment on how pretty she is too. Your mother is so proud of you. Her face lights up daily because of your sweet and sometimes sassy personality.
The joy you bring to my life is so fulfilling to me. I am a happier person because of you. I love that you enjoy singing. I love your blonde curly hair. I love your prissy walk. I love how you run to show me what you are wearing when you feel cute. I love your strong will, although at times it can be challenging. I love that you want “me do it.” I love that you love to be with your family and friends. I love that you try to say prayers with your brother before dinner. I love your desire to try to new things. The bottom line is I love you, Nora Ligon Bass.
My promise to you is that your mother and I will always be here for you, always pray for you, and always love you.
Your proud father,
Franklin
