Nov 30 – so thankful that on this day, 20 years ago, I became a mother for the 2nd time. I was only 23 years old and I didn’t know much, still don’t, but I’d like to think I learned a thing or two over the years… things I think you should know.

*Do SOME dumb stuff (but not a lot) – it’s not really worth it if you can’t look back on it and have a few stories to tell.
*Reach outside of your comfort zone every chance you get.
*There’s no such thing as “can’t” – you CAN do anything.
*Life is all about you handle Plan B, and C, and D…
*Honor others and you honor yourself.
*No one likes a know it all, be open to new ideas and always, always LISTEN.
*Be smart – real men fight with their words and their brains, not their fists.
*Live with Integrity, Honesty, and Kindness Most importantly, live your life with Passion and Purpose – to do anything less is to sacrifice your gift.
Happy Birthday, Dylan! Mom and Dad love you to the moon and back!
Oh! One other thing you should know; remember when I told you one day I would let you go.. I lied! I will ALWAYS be right there beside you!
