Blog fav #3-----my legacy....

I want to be remembered as a faithful sister who would punch a guy named Freddy in the gut because he was a bully or who would stand outside a high school for hours, waiting just waiting for the posting of the upcoming cheer squad or take to their college orientation. I would do all of that and more because I am loyal and true.


I want to be remembered as the daughter that paid for her own education. Who set up ring tones of maximus just to make my mama giggle. The daughter who took extensive golf lessons to have a moment with her dad and who looks more and more like her mom (with her dad’s white hairs) everyday.


I want to be remembered as the auntie to Lexi and Robbie who introduced them to the ballet and the theater and avocados and eating cookie dough and chicken veronica. I want to be the aunt that was there for them whenever wherever they need me and who loved them as if they were my own.


I want to be remembered as the best friend to Rebecca who taught her how to make fish sticks and meat loaf and crescent rolls. The best friend who stayed up all night listening to secrets and was the first person we called (to each other) when our hearts were broken. I want to be remembered and being consistent and loving and kind.


I want to be remembered by my kids, my club as being an advocate for youth. I want them to remember that I am always there for them and that I love them unconditionally. I want to be more than the Branch Executive. I want to be consistent and honest, trustworthy and sweet. I want to be a role model and a listener and a cheerleader when they follow the right path. I want to be the person they call when they get a good grade and the person they call then they need help. I want them to speak fondly of me when they talk about their childhood and the people that have influenced them.


I want to be remembered as myself for being confident and sincere when I speak to my staff and volunteers. I want to be inspiring. I want to teach something amazing to someone everyday.


I want to be ME.
