How much time has passed, twelve years and nine months ago that my wife and I learned that we would be parents.

That was the biggest emotion you can feel when you love your wife, from that moment we were very eager and eager to meet you, we did not know what sex that little person who was growing up in my wife's womb would have. But we were very sure of something and that is that we love you and I say it in the present because that love is always in the present, nothing can change it even at the same time, although time usually plays bad plays.

For me, all my love for you, beloved daughter, will be present.

The happiness that flooded my life to see you the first time, there I knew what it is to love and know the true love of father, with you I learned to love with sanity, and a little controlled madness.

I never had a father by my side, so I always try to be a good father to teach you everything that is within my reach I have no wealth but what I offer you is better than material wealth, I offer you my being and my whole life to support you and show you the way not necessarily holding hands, I just have to tell you which is the best way, it is up to you to know which way to go, but always with the certainty that I am going to support you.

I must be by your side to teach you to differentiate the good but it will be your decision the path you choose, I will only give you the tools you need so that you can face any situation, if it is wrong I will let you know if it is well I will also do it know but you must solve it is the best way to be someone in life capable of facing challenges. You know that I will always be able to do, what I would do for me and much more for you.

I do not want you to be a dry coconut of those who do not know what they want, for having irresponsible parents who do not teach values, and end up being losers and social resentful. I don't want that for you.

You are already at the age of dissent.

You may not agree with me, Knowing what you want is good, but you must also keep in mind that to achieve this you need a lot of effort because the things achieved with commitment are the ones that are most enjoyed.

You must bear in mind that I am your father and I take care of you, that you do not miss the most important thing that are the love of father and that of Family, values, respect towards all, tolerance, something very important responsibility.

I never thought you would make me so happy with all your doubts that you turn to me when you don't know something that fills me with much happiness, knowing that I can support you in everything that is within my reach is a reason for happiness for me.

Today we have traveled a path of just twelve years, and I know that many are missing.

As a great poet says:

KHALIL GIBRAN: «ABOUT THE CHILDREN»

«Your children are not your children
They are sons and daughters of life desirous of itself.
They don't come from you, but through you and although they are with you they don't belong.
You can give them your love, but not your thoughts,
Well they have their own thoughts.
You can host their bodies, but not their souls,
Because they live in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit even in dreams.
You can strive to be like them, but don't try to make them like you
because life does not recede, nor does it stop in yesterday.
Tú eres el arco del cual tus hijos, como flechas vivas, son lanzados (…).
Let the bow in your archer's hand be towards happiness. ”

I complete. They are from the time and space of the earth where they are born.

Time is so fast that many times we do not perceive how they grow, it just happens and when we realize you are already a teenager.
