“It’s ‘daughter’s week’, and if you are a daughter or have a daughter who makes life worth living, by just being around. And you love her as much as your own breath...if you are proud of your daughter, or being a daughter, send this to other people who have daughters or who are daughters...as I just did...Daughters are angels.”
