The relationship between mothers and their daughters is an incredibly strong one. Moms raising girls have the power to shape the next generation of women and those to come by teaching their kids important lessons.
- That confidence and independence are beautiful.
- That size doesn't matter, but wasting her time worrying about it does.
- That brilliance should never be downplayed.
- That emotions are liberating so she should go ahead and laugh, cry or scream.
- To always have enough money to pay her own way, but to be gracious when someone else treats. And to be generous with what she has.
- To not make age an excuse for her actions.
- That "mean girls" are really just insecure.
- That she has an amazing power to make a difference in life.
- To actively pursue her dreams especially those that seem unattainable.
- That the love she will give and receive is limitless.

To remember that anything a boy can do, she can do to, and sometimes better than they can! Gender has nothing to do with the ability to do something you really want to do and love!
1That she deserves to be treated with respect. I'm in the midst of a divorce at the moment because of the way my husband treats me - one of the things that keeps me going is that if I stay with him, my daughter will think his behavior is acceptable, and I do not want her to be treated as badly as I have been.
2The practical things - how to change a tire, snake a drain, change a door knob, etc., so she can be self-reliant, and confident.
3My grandmother always used to say, "Remember, he's somebody's son" when I would go on a date. Good manners are always important!
4add-on to #9: don't let an insecure man stop you from fulfilling your dreams.
5LOVE this. I'm absolutely printing these.
6i love my mom for imparting her words of wisdom and encouragement all throughout my life!
