My Review:
5 stars out of 5

"Your are God's gift to me, forever you will be."  This quote is repeated through this beautifully written book about a mother talking to her daughter, from the moment she is born to the time she is about to have a daughter of her own. 

I am so happy to have learned about this book and had an opportunity to read it.  I will definitely be sharing this book with Savannah as she gets older.  It truly is a keepsake to be treasured for years to come.  This book does a wonderful job in showing the special relationship between a mother and her daughter and will fill your heart with love each time you read it.



The illustrations are also amazing.  Peg Lozier captured the true essence of the love between a mother and daughter through the various stages of their lives beautifully.  I especially loved the wedding and older years illustrations.  The detail given to each illustrations is amazing.
