Happy Mother's Day, Mom!

This blog as been created to follow me and my adventures in Nashville, Tennessee. Since I was a little girl I had a dream to move to Nashville and be involved in the music industry. After spending a few months there this fall, I realized that it wasn't that I wanted to move to Nashville, it's that I needed to. Moving away from family and friends is obviously not the easiest thing in the world. Knowing that I won't get to see my parents everyday and that I can't just hang out with my siblings, friends, or nieces and nephews literally brings tears to my eyes, but it's just something that I have to do. Most parents think their children are crazy for trying to chase a dream, but not mine. Not only do my parents support me in all that I do, they've actually helped make my dream come true. This blog is for you, Mom, to track me in my journey of making my dreams come true. I couldn't have done it without you, so why shouldn't you be involved in every step of the process? I know how much you love TheCardinalBlog to watch your grandchildren grow up, so here's a chance to watch me grow up and spread my wings. I promise to post as much as I possibly can with everything going on in my life! I will include a calendar of events so you know what I'm doing when I'm doing it, and so you'll know exactly when I'll be home to visit! Mostly this blog is being created so you won't be sad. I want you to see how happy I am and how I attribute my happiness to the hard work of you and Dad. I would truly be nothing without you two. So don't be sad that I'll be 1,000 miles away and you can't see me everyday, be happy that I'm following my dreams because that's what you taught me to do. Be happy that when we are together, it'll be quality time. Be happy to know that your daughter loves and respects you with all of her heart. Be happy to make me happy...I won't be able to survive if not. I love you Mom, Happy Mother's Day!
