I think every parent believes that their child’s future is worth protecting – because I know the power of this force in me and what I am willing to do.

I hope that you start doing things that will help the world.

My hope for you is that all our legislative efforts and care for the environment makes a difference so that we can wipe asthma out of our family.

Estou esperando ansiosa sua chegada pra que a gente possa fazer muitas coisas boas juntos, uma delas, é cuidar bem do nosso planeta.

I want the very best for you and for generations to come. There is only one planet earth. Your mommy and I will make a genuine effort to make an impact to protect it for you.

Right now you are only a little over 5 weeks old, but you have truly changed my whole world. Your Mom and I always say that we thought we loved before you were born, but now that you have come into the world and we met you, our ability to love just expanded exponentially.

We can learn a lot about how to treat others from stories that have been passed from generation to generation.

Deixo para você o meu quintal onde o ar é perfumado pelas flores e árvores, a terra dá frutos e flores além de abrigar muitos bichinhos, a água é utilizada com consciência e o ser humano é respeitado e tratado como alguém que depende da natureza para VIVER.

I am sitting in a classroom thinking about you. Which is rare for me. I hope that our family has taken some initiative to do something about changing society instead of building robots and large houses.

As I sit here and write to you, I’d like to share with you something more horrifying than a few boos – our current home, Earth.

This Mother’s Day I am again thinking of my grandsons future and what I am doing to change the world if only by a small fraction.
