My Names and Legacies

Dear sweet girls,


I am often asked this question: To what do you attribute your personal and professional success in this male-dominated culture? 


I often answer that I was named for my two grandmothers. When you are named for two remarkable women, failure is not really an option.


I love both of my grandmothers – your great-grandmothers – dearly. You have an amazing maternal grandmother. May her love for you guide you throughout your lives.


You are loved beyond measure.


Your Favorite Auntie
