I am very proud of my daughter and to see her grow into a determined, self assured and caring woman.  She amazes me at times at how aware she is even when we think she sometimes isin't.  She believes in herself and makes herself vulnerable to life and it's challenges and tries things, she takes the risk.  She is not concerned with what other people think, she follows and works for what she wants and believes in.  She dosen't care if people think she is some nerd, she herself wants good grades.  She does not care if people think she is goofy because she is and has fun.  She does not need to pile on makeup or wear shorts with her ass cheeks hanging out because she knows she is beautiful and for the right reasons, she knows she is a good person and that is what is important.  She makes her views and opinions and thoughts heard, she speaks up for herself, she knows she has a voice.  She loves others and treats them how she wants to be treated.  She supports her brother and family and is interested in them and not just herself.  She is a good friend and is concerned with their wellbeing.  She includes her Dad and I in her life and wants us there and wants to share in our families successes and achievements and celebrations.  People are drawn to her for the right reasons, they value her for her and what she stands for and who she is a person and not an object.  She has goals and dreams and shares them.  She is a fighter!!!

At 15 she truly is a fantastic person.  She is not trying to prove anything to anyone but herself and I admire her so much for that.  I have so much respect for this young woman and wish other girls would see the greatness in themselves too and that they have the  potential for so much, they have so much to give and share with others, they are worth so much more than what others tell them or try to shove down their throats.  I wish other parents would see this in their children and would help to guide them and lead by example in their own lives.  Our children are what we leave behind when we are gone and their children and their childrens children, our values and morals carry on long after we are gone.  People really need to wake up and to get their priorities straight and to open their eyes to what is important in life, we only have so much time here so let's make sure we leave our mark for the right reasons and the proper reasons.  Let's see and appreciate the people that should matter to us most.

Thank you C for making my life better and for teaching me to love more and to strive to be better and do better.  Thank you for being my daughter!!!!

    I am a wife and  mother of two, a highschool daughter and elementary aged son.  I am hardworking, loving, fun and supportive and I never thought this issue would touch my life but it has in more ways than one.  I want to bring more awareness to this major problem in our society and maybe can help someone along the way too.
