So proud of you Hol

I’m sitting in the car (waiting for you to come out of your first exam) reflecting on how incredibly proud I am of you. Thirteen years of schooling have led to this moment, these exams, but you already know Hol, because we’ve talked about it so often: results don’t define you or your worth.

What matters is the effort you’ve put in, even on the days you didn’t want to. You kept going, showing true resilience and strength. That’s what makes me proud beyond words.

Good luck today for your first exam, but remember, once this is over, it’s just one small chapter behind you. The best part is ahead, you’re free to live your life exactly how you want, and I can’t wait to see where it takes you.

Dad and I love you so much and are so proud of you no matter what.

13 years of schooling have come to an end. I don’t think it has really hit me yet, you are so happy to be finished you didn’t even shed a tear. I am so proud of you this year for so many reasons, you picked yourself up and managed to make a beautiful new group of friends who are like minded and kind like you. You have put in everything you have to studying especially in the last 2 months. You can hold your head high to say you gave it your all. I love you so much and now the big amazing world is waiting for you to live your best life and make all your own dreams come true, it’s in your hands now and the skies the limit, make the most of every opportunity, be happy and have fun. I love you Hol and Dad and I will always be here for you xx
