More Beautiful You

Having all girls, at least so far, makes me think about how I want them to know that they are so precious and valuable to us and mostly to their loving heavenly Father. There is a song by Johnny Diaz that I really like these days and it's called More Beautiful You. Girls, if you ever look back at this blog some day, the words to this song are just some of the things I want you to know.

Little girl fourteen flipping through a magazine
Says she wants to look that way
But her hair isn’t straight her body isn’t fake
And she’s always felt overweight
Well little girl fourteen I wish that you could see
That beauty is within your heart
And you were made with such care your skin your body and your hair
Are perfect just the way they are
There could never be a more beautiful you
don't buy the lies disguises and hoops they make you jump through
You were made to fill a purpose that only you could do
So there could never be a more beautiful you
Well little girl twenty-one you never thought that this would come
You starve yourself to play the part
But I can promise you there’s a man whose love is true
And he’ll treat you like the jewel you are
Although you're only 6, 3, and 6 months old, I want you to know that there will NEVER be a more beautiful you! I love you so much.
Mommy

I have that same thought every time I hear this song. I hope my girls always know how precious and beautiful and worthy they are.
