20 Things My Daughter Will Learn

Don’t do things just because other people are doing it. Going with the flow is overrated.

You might be able to change the way you look with makeup and clothes, but your personality will be the same. You are so beautiful on the inside, remember that.

1. Express yourself.

Pick and choose your own style, then wear it proudly. Do it for all of the girls that never will. Originality is beautiful, keep your head up.

2. Hating the girl isn't worth it.

I promise you, it's not her fault. It's his. Don’t you dare give him so much credit.

3. The long messages you type out but don’t ever send will not make a difference in the long run.

Save yourself some time, it's only breaking your own heart.

4. Your dad will always love you even if he doesn’t do so well with showing emotion.

He needs you.

5. Spontaneity is important for any and every season.

Use it to create magic.

6. You deserve more than he offered.

I know you loved him, but if we was the wrong boy for you, just imagine how much you will love the boy that’s right for you.

7. Hot chocolate and Netflix really do cure just about anything.

8. Create a life of your own by making decisions based only on good things.

Make sure to always go with your gut.

9. You are a princess, today and every day.

10. God loves you, and you are His daughter.

He only wants what’s best for you. The change will be hard, but it will work out. I promise.

11. You were born to stand out.

Don’t do things just because other people are doing it. Going with the flow is overrated.

12. You will meet a boy that will love you deeply and treasure you immensely.

He will show you a little bit more of Jesus than you knew before. He will kiss your palms and pull the car around when it’s raining so you don’t have to get your hair wet. Do whatever it takes to show him love.

13. Taylor Swift songs will always make sense.

Not just when you’re in love. Sing at the top of your lungs, you’re more than enough.

14. It will and can always get better.

God is always going to give you the people you need. He’s never failed, and He won’t start now.

15. Don’t rush into relationships because you’re worried someone won’t wait for you.

If they won’t wait to date you, they’re not worth your time.

16. You deserve flowers on your doorstep and notes on the counter.

Don’t ever let someone tell you that you don’t deserve to be pursued. God pursues you every day.

17. You will cry, sometimes more often than not, but that does not mean you are broken.

18. Don’t shut people out.

Let people in. Love is contagious and you deserve so much of it.

19. Learn to love from a distance.

You won't always have the privilege to love people up close.

20. Always tell people how much you love them.

Encouragement is something everyone needs.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
