My daughters’ generation is lucky. For the most part, Dads are completely involved in their kids’ lives like my husband is.

I will continue to work on me, push myself to new limits a if only to show my daughters all that women are capable of once they set their sights on something.

I am to support her dreams and help her discover how to reach them. There is no reason that she can’t do what she aspires to and I need to make that one thing very clear today.

Perhaps the observation that someone is old should be considered a crown of glory, a thing of beauty, rather than a slight.
