Dearest Stephanie,
What can I say? I only met you about six months ago and took a liking to you immediately. I strongly believed that you would be able to help our daughter, if she too would be willing to receive your help and my hunch was correct. Fortunately, she too took a liking to you immediately and that was a relief for me. Your gentleness and sweetness won her over!
Not only did you help, I would say that is an understatement! You gave her strength, you gave her courage, you gave her someone to lean on. She listened, she coped, with you along her side all the way. You gave her your full attention, your inner strength, your devotion. Beside her, you too learnt but so did she! Thank you so very much, from the bottom of my heart for your patience, your positive energy and you certainly need a lot of both with teenagers. Thank you, for truly and I mean truly caring and understanding. Your perseverance and strength gave her the boost she needed to go on. Your kindness and persistence finally touched her heart enough, so that she could finally feel at ease with you. You said it took you longer than usual to break the ice but it was a breakthrough for our daughter that she finally opened up to you. Thank you, for your dedication and your effort and your strong will to help her and to keep her going, during this challenging part of her life. You were the best investment we have made for our first born.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, for all your extra tender, loving care towards our teenager and thank you for the extra time too that you took to help her in her time of need. We’ll be forever grateful.
All my love,
Anna-Maria
