Daughter, I love you in a way that doesn't translate well to a card. Please hear it in the way I always pick up when you call.
New Wishes
A handful of wishes pulled from the cabinet this morning. Pick one up — copy, save it to your pinboard, or send it on.
I love you. The card is short. The love behind it is enormous and forever.
Love note. The world is loud. You make my corner of it warmer.
I love you, my girl. May the year ahead bring you what you've been quietly hoping for.
Daughter — I love you. Today, on the regular Tuesday, the love is the same as it was on the day you were born.
I love you. The way you've grown into yourself has been one of the great privileges of being your parent.

Love wishes for my daughter, who is, somehow, becoming one of my favorite people in any room.
I love you, daughter. The friendship inside the parent-child bond is the part that makes ours rare.
Daughter — I love you. May the world be a little gentler with you than it has sometimes been.
I love you. The bond between us is permanent. The way you've made me proud is the part I keep coming back to.
Love note. May the year ahead bring you the kind of small good news you've been quietly waiting for.
I love you, my daughter. The way you've shown up for the people in your life is the proof of who you are.
Daughter — I love you. The world will keep asking a lot of you. May you have the steady support of the people who love you, including, always, me.
I love you. The years go fast. The love only grows alongside them. That's the math of being a parent.
Love wishes for the daughter who has, by her own effort, become the woman I quietly hoped she'd become.
I love you, my girl. May this year be the kind of year that finally feels like yours.
Daughter — I love you for who you've always been and for who you're still becoming.
I love you. The list of things I love about you is too long for any card. Ask me in person. Slowly. With coffee.
Love note. The way I love you isn't something I have to think about. It just is.
I love you, daughter. The way you handle your own life is the proof that you became the person I always knew was in there.
Daughter — I love you. May the year ahead be the soft one you've been waiting for.
I love you. The years between then and now have been the years I count as the good ones. You've been in most of them.
Love wishes for my daughter. Same vow as every year: I'm proud of you. I love you. I'm in your corner. Don't make me say it twice.
I love you, my girl. The kid I rocked to sleep is the woman I now ask for advice. The math is wild. The love is the constant.
Daughter — I love you. Today and on every regular Tuesday — same love, same pride, same answer, deeper every year.
