To my Children, “I want you to BE the BEST….you can be.. Be proud of yourself, even if you’re different, because you were created with intent and a unique purpose that requires you to be like no other. Be confident, but not arrogant, and be the best encourager of others, so they can find their purpose too. Be okay with failure, because that’s where you’ll learn some of life’s greatest lessons. Be kind, compassionate and forgiving, because nobody gains anything from being the opposite of these. Be faithful, believing in something much bigger than yourself, because the world is not about you, and the second you think it is, the world will teach you a lesson. Be motivated and courageous, because life is not easy and requires hard and sometimes scary work, but it will be worth it. Be thankful, because thankfulness creates joy and contentment, and life is intended to be enjoyed. Be an honest and loyal friend, who speaks the truth with love and stands firmly through the best and worst of times. Be what God intended you to be: the best YOU there is. And do I want you to HAVE the best? I sure do. I want you to work your hardest at everything I just said. Never, ever stop trying to be the best you…and you will EARN the best that life has to offer. I’m cheering for you and I’ll do what I can to help you succeed. And, I might even be so excited for you that I post it on Facebook, because I’m proud to be your mum. Not because of me or anything I want in life, but because I get the privilege of helping you become what you were created to be. It’s hard work, but it’s an honor, and perhaps the most important work I’ll ever do. So, you’ll just have to forgive me if I celebrate you, as only a parent can do, with each step you take toward your own purpose. And, I hope that other parents won’t feel badly, because their child has a different path to walk.” Love you all heaps
