My son said to me, “Mom, I want to be like you when I grow up.” I looked at him and said thank you buddy, but I hope you never have to go through anything like this. My kids think this is the coolest thing in the world. Holding signs, walking the picket line, and standing beside their mom. But they don’t realize it’s about so much more.

I pray they never know the uncertainty and heartbreak of fighting for what they deserve, but to never be afraid to stand up for what is right. To know their worth, stay strong, and never let anyone make you feel less. They may not understand this moment yet, but someday they will.
