Life lessons a mother must teach her daughter:
1. Your mother loves you
We will argue. We will laugh. We will cry.
Remember that no matter how mad I make you, I love you.
I see endless possibilities when looking at you and want you to succeed.

2. Sports will teach a lifetime of values
Sports taught your father and me what it feels like to give it our all and still lose.

Yes, girls should play sports.

3. The world will steal your joy if you let it
The world doesn't like you walking around with joy and happiness.
Be ready for trial, drama, and all-out attacks on your way of life. But, meet them with grace and an attitude that you will persevere.
You create your joy.

4. Your children will watch you
They learn how to love, persevere, forgive, and stand their ground from watching you.
Don't try to act like a perfect person.
Instead, be real and show them what life is like when you fight, laugh, and love as a family.

Grit is defined as the strength of character in moments of uncertainty.
It can't be learned through reading books or watching as many movies.
You have to learn grit through tough times.
Don't shy away from difficulties; you will grow

People will show you their best and worst sides.
Don't ever think the world is all good or all bad.
Know that no matter what people are going through, there is always the power for them to change.

8. The world is bigger than your hometown
When you're young, you will think that your hometown is the entire world.
Until the day you leave those city limits and travel and experience different cultures worldwide.
Your eyes will be opened to all that life has to offer.

9. Keep some things to yourself
People will use information against.
They will push their agenda on you.
Working in silence is a superpower.
Show them the finished product, not every step of the way.

10. Strength comes from above
There is only so far you can go on your own.
There will be times when you search for meaning in life.
God has a plan for your life.
Show others the love of the Lord and honor Him in all you do.

11. If it feels wrong, it is
Nothing in this life should be forced.
If the situation feels off, remove yourself.
Trust your gut always and stand up for what you believe.

12. You don't have to go to college
Maybe you will; perhaps you won't.
A college degree doesn't promise you anything.
You win by being a lifelong learner and pursuing your dreams with drive and determination.
Never stop learning.

13. Your last name matters
Our last name is unique because it comes with a lot of history.
Not all of it is glamorous, but you're living proof that generational curses can be broken.
Take pride in where you come from and be proud of where you're going.

14. Start investing at 20
Learn what compound interest is, put 25% of your earnings into a mutual fund monthly, and never touch it.
You can live off the other 75%.
When you earn more money, keep the percentages the same.

15. Don't worry about the future
Take it from your dad. Worrying about tomorrow only steals joy from the day.
All the deadlines, boys, and arguments will work themselves out. Focus on being in the moment, and the future will take care of itself.

16. You are enough even if you don't feel like it
You don't see it, but sometimes I don't feel like I'm the best mom.
I'm reminded every day that I get to love you and our dad.
A day where you move an inch is still progress.
Never think you are not enough.

17. Your losses don't define you
I've seen so many people who have never overcome losses.
They are constantly defeated and eventually give up.
Losses are learning opportunities that develop true character.
Lose but never be a loser.

18. Winning isn't the goal; growing is
Winning is amazing.
There is no better feeling than winning after putting in the hard work.
If you become addicted to winning, you will never be satisfied.
Winning and losing are part of growing; embrace both.

Your marriage will rise and fall with your dependence on God.

Always and Forever.
