They expect the best,
never mess up.
keep your head held high,
never look back.
Achieve what is there.
If your going to fail,
wait that can't happen.
When you feel down,
slap a smile on your face,
and don't show a frown.
You must be at the top.
If someone doesn't like you,
start sucking up.
I think I'm starting to get tired,
of being the best.


-Smile, it's not a sin.

Just be the best you can.

That's all that anyone that really cares should ask of you.

Type A personality here, checking in.

everything must be perfect

Understand this very well, and as a mom, I'm trying hard not to put that on my kids too.

Thanks for the reminder.
