Research has shown that childhood experiences have a direct impact on how we are as adults; our views, how we see others, how we see ourselves, the boundaries we set and much more. "My Darling, My Daughter" was written for Emma Hovey to help guide her through life while knowing her worth and that she will always have her Mommy to count on. Every little girl should be able to embrace who they are and stand tall even in times of adversity. "My Darling, My Daughter" is intended to provide love, acceptance, support, and wisdom that some don't experience until their later years. If this book can help prevent Emma, or any other little girls, from learning some lessons the "hard way" while providing them with the necessary tools for healthy relationships in adulthood, then "My Darling, My Daughter" has served its purpose.
