To My Beloved Child
I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest apologies for not being able to spend time with you today. I understand how much you were looking forward to playing together, and it pains me that I couldn’t be present. The truth is, I longed for those moments just as much as you did.
You are growing up so quickly; it’s evident in everything from your shoes that no longer fit to the wise advice I receive from friends who remind me how soon you’ll be off to college. Yet today, I was unable to play or cuddle with you because I was preoccupied with the many responsibilities that demand my attention at work and home. My schedule is busier than I ever anticipated, and it breaks my heart to think that this takes away from our time together. I assure you, I will strive to make more time for you tomorrow.
I recognize that this isn’t fair to you. Please try to understand that my busyness doesn’t stem from a lack of love; rather, it’s driven by my desire to create a better life for you. I know you’re young and may not fully grasp this now, but I hope that one day, when you have children of your own, you’ll realize that every effort I made was out of love.
Today, however, you seemed to only see a mother who was too busy. I attempted to explain my situation, but when I saw the tears in your eyes and heard you say, “I just want you,” I began to question whether I truly understood your feelings. Perhaps I have been so focused on preparing for the future that I overlooked the importance of being present today. Maybe I have let myself believe that you would understand my intentions, but it’s becoming clear that I need to be more attuned to your needs in the moment.
So today, let me emphasize this: you needed to know that I love you. It seems I am the one who has misunderstood, not you. I’ve been so consumed with thoughts of a better tomorrow that I neglected to focus on our time together today. I may not have all the answers on how to balance everything, but today, I am committed to showing you my love. Tomorrow will take care of itself.
You are learning valuable lessons at this very moment, and I must be cautious of the messages I am conveying. Thank you for teaching me what I needed to understand—it’s a reminder that I will always be here for you, especially today.
