In everything I’ve ever done, I’ve aimed to inspire others.
I’ve always felt that my true calling was to build others up, to help them believe deeply in themselves; to show people they’re worth it.
I’ve tried to be an example of hard work, unruly passion & forging your own path; I’ve tried to be a good role model.
.
On New Years Eve I was asked what my goal for 2020 was in front of 500+ people at the biggest stadium in the world & I held back tears knowing you’ve been growing inside of me; growing along with me.
.
I answered what has been on my heart for decades, but what feels 1000x more significant now that “Mom” will be my nickname.
.
“I want to empower the youth to know they can do ANYTHING, accomplish anything they dream of. Regardless of what others may tell them, I want them to know with hard work, dedication & an unshakable confidence, the world is here waiting for you to leave your mark.”
.
When I said that, I was talking to you, little one.

Dad is ecstatic.
‘Pa & NoNo’ on cloud nine.
Aunties (so many aunties) freaking out.
Cousins, pumpedddd.
Mom is an emotional wreck & getting more fat by the day.
Wish me luck, I’m going to need it.
