Positive Affirmations for Little Girls

One of my most cherished parts of my day is settling Addilyn down for the night. It is a special time for us, and one that I hope I can protect when Lilliana arrives in March. We still pretty much stick to this bedtime routine, but with a few modifications (we don’t do a bottle anymore, but she does do milk in her cup, she has outgrown her Owlet sadly, etc). 

Sometime around her first birthday though, I added something that is truly special to me. After her daddy kisses her and I say prayers with her, before I turn on her white noise, I love to spend a few minutes intentionally speaking into her with some positive affirmations. I believe that we all would sleep a little better if the last thing that we heard for the day built us up and spoke love into us, and it is something that I really enjoy doing with her! My hope is that as she grows, she will be grounded in who she is and how adored she is, and will become a strong, compassionate young woman. 

Here are a few of my favorites, that are simple enough for her at almost two! I would love to hear some more in the comments, though! Especially that would be applicable as she grows!

• Jesus loves you so much and He wants you to know Him!
• Mommy and Daddy love you so much!
• We are so proud of you!
• You are very kind and caring.
• You are a good friend!
• You are so smart!
• You are very brave!
• You are very important and you will change the world someday.
• You are so beautiful. You are wonderfully made and are just right the way that you are!
• You can do anything you set your mind to!

• You are a sweet, gentle girl and I love your spirit.
