My girl leaves tomorrow to study abroad—alone—in Grenoble, France for six months.
And honestly… the word proud doesn’t even come close.
She’s been my best friend and my sidekick since the day she was born. I always say, “The problem with raising a strong, independent woman is that they turn out to be one.”
Turns out—it’s not a problem at all.
People once thought I was crazy for moving across the country alone with a 7-year-old. But that leap of faith opened a life filled with adventure, love, and courage—for both of us.
This moment is proof that every hard choice, every leap, every lesson mattered. Every good sunset has some clouds.
You were born to fly, my girl.
And I can’t wait to see where you land. ✈️🇫🇷💙
