What a gracious statement, Heidi–all the more poignant given what you didn’t get. Your daughter is lucky.

I love it and know it well. (My mother also taught me to make my bed every morning. And that sometimes you have to do something over and over in order to do it right.)

Not to live her life pleasing others but to follow her heart in pleasing herself. I had too many voices in my head telling me what to do, how to do it and with whom I should be that crowded out my own voice until I was in my mid-20s. Main voice was my mother’s very critical and judgmental one. I didn’t want my daughter to live her life trying to please me or her dad or her life partner. And if she is successful at this, it will please us to no end: to see her happy, and jazzed up about living a life that has meaning to her.
