Now I know what you're thinking, who is Natalie
Hawkins? Natalie Hawkins is the mother
of Gymnast Gabrielle Douglas aka "The flying Squirrel", the teenager
who has captured our hearts and become America's favorite Olympic
Champion. She's the woman that
sacrificed so much for her daughter to achieve her dream of winning a gold
metal. Nurturing and supporting her even
through the tough times. Much too often
children's dreams are dashed by their parents who don't take them
seriously. How many potential doctors,
lawyers, musicians, or athletes were talked out of their dream by a parent who
didn't think it was possible? Not
because they don't love their children, but because they forget what it's like
to have a dream. Natalie Hawkins didn't
forget, she showed us that when you nurture and support your child they can
soar, and for this I say thank you!
XOXO
