As your season comes to an end, I reflect on all the memories made through the years, watching you, coaching you, and seeing you grown and develop as a soccer player. You have done an incredible job and put in a lot of hard work and effort. The skills that were developed during the past years will be a stepping stone to your future success. The trips, the practices, the games, they were all a joy to be a part of. Keep up the great work, Sunshine!

Each memory we make is like building a city, and that city is home to the woman you are becoming and will become. Some memories will be happy, some not. But each has their own value and lesson. Cherish them all, they make up the incredible young woman that I see before me each day, and the young woman you see in the mirror each day should always be the woman you are most proud of and love the most.

This week, you’ll be dancing your way into a new adventure. A test for yourself. If there is one thing I am sure for you, it is when you sent your mind to something, you will get it done. As you get older, there will be more “x factors” that come into play and can influence plans. Always remember what is within your control…your thoughts, your feelings, and what you do about them. As you take the stage in the dance of life, always remember that just by taking that first step and showing up, you have already accomplished more than others. Do your best, have fun, and the experience will be one to remember and learn from. I believe in you and what you set your goals on. I am always proud of you and the determination you show.
