I've taken my upstate weekend home from Rochester to Buffalo, to spend the rest of my time with Mom and Grandma, two more ladies who have made the biggest impressions in my life. Talk about role models. I have been fortunate to have two strong willed, open minded, and extremely capable women raise me and shape me into the woman I am today, and I hope I do enough to make them proud. As I navigate this path of life I'm on, I've never not had their guidance and support to lean on any time I stumble or take a wrong turn, and I've learned that's more important than all the money or status in the world. Don't get me wrong, I'll continue to work to make myself the most I can be, if anything to prove their hard work in me won't go to waste. But, they've also taught me to be content with what I have, to make the most of what I currently am. I never fail to feel like a pretty darn awesome girl after just a few minutes in their company, and you know what? I am. I have a good heart, a good head on my shoulders and a good sense of humor...what else could I really ask for? Maybe a slightly larger pay check...but with these fine ladies behind me, I know I won't starve, so long as I'm following my heart.
