Strong Daughters โ Happy Memorial Day. ๐ฟ
Today we honor people who gave everything. And I want to pause for a moment and acknowledge something:
So do you.
Not the same. Not even close. But the daily sacrifice of a daughter who shows up โ exhausted, sometimes resentful, often unseen โ for her parent? That's a kind of devotion that deserves to be honored too.
Today, if you're spending the holiday managing medications instead of eating potato saladโฆ if you're at a facility instead of a barbecueโฆ if you're grieving the version of your parent who used to host the whole neighborhood โ
I see you. We see you.
And if you DID get a slice of summer today โ a laugh, a cold drink, a moment of peace โ good. You're allowed that. Finding light in the heavy isn't a betrayal. It's survival. It's what Strong Daughters do.
