Have you ever not done something because your friends wouldn't? My daughter hasn't......
Today was my daughter's 17th birthday. For her birthday I bought her a Cali Smoed t-shirt and bow from the Cheer Market here on Fierce board, I also bought her a Teal Army shirt from their website. She is obsessed with All Stars. She has been on an All Star squad for 9 yrs., but it is just a small squad here in PA to mainly give girls something to do. We are so not Worlds or even Regional material. But she doesn't care she loves her team and loves watching it whenever its on TV and follows all sort of teams on YouTube. She was so excited when she opened her present tonight she will wear her shirts with pride however no one will have a clue who or what is on her shirt. Will she care? NO! She is her own person, she does what she wants and doesn't care what others think not even her friends, in fact not one of her close friends are on cheer. She's always been the lone girl on the squad from her grade until this year. We are from a small town in PA our whole High School (7th thru 12th) has less than 400 students.
Her dream is to go see Worlds. Which I will never be able to give her but that's besides the point. I am just writing this to say anyone can live their dreams, live life your way, you don't have to do or not do something because your friends don't. My daughter is proof of that. I am so proud of her, she doesn't care she will get asked, "Who's that" a hundred times tomorrow when she wears her Teal Army shirt to school. She already wears Cheer bows to school. She loves All Stars. In fact, She was squealing with delight the other night cuz a member of one of the top teams 'followed' her on Instagram. So beleive in yourself, do what you want, no one can make you happy but yourself. I am so proud of my daughter.
Oh and she said tonight she would really love a Rays and CA shirt, haha! I think I started something............ :help: LOL!
