l want my daughter to outdo me in every way. Be smarter. Go further. Heal faster. Win bigger. I’m not raising a mini-me, I’m raising an upgraded edition. A BETTER version 🥹🤍🥰😩🥳🥳🥳
If you’re a millennial parent you probably:

- Say “I love you” every single day out loud
- Hug them after discipline instead of sending them to their room
We’re not soft. We’re breaking cycles with intention.
