A note from Mom & Dad

To our Taylor, on your 20th birthday

Taylor, twenty years ago, you changed everything. You were everything we dreamed of and more than we ever imagined.

Watching you grow into the woman you are today fills our hearts with a pride we don't have words for.

You are real. You are strong. And you are exactly who you were always meant to be.

Happy 20th birthday, sweetie. The best is still ahead of you, and we'll be cheering every step of the way.

With all our love,
Mom & Dad 🀠

Taylor volleyball senior night
Tompkins High School Β· The Falcons Β· Senior Night

She played like she meant it.

From the gymnasium floors of Katy to the bright lights of the state tournament, Taylor gave everything she had as a Tompkins Falcon. She took her team all the way to the state finals at the highest UIL classification β€” and earned every moment of it. That kind of grit doesn't just happen on the court. It shapes who you are for life.

Volleyball trophy
Champions

She knows what winning looks like.

Champions aren't built in a day. They're built in early morning practices, late-night drives home from away games, and the quiet determination to get back up and go again. Taylor knows all of it β€” and she has the trophy to prove it.

Prom
Senior Prom Β· 2024

Always the most beautiful person in the room.

She's always had a way of lighting up any space she walks into. Prom night was no exception. Dad's heart may have skipped a beat or two.

Graduation
Tompkins High School Β· Class of 2024

She walked across that stage.

Honor cords. Diploma. Beaming smile. Taylor graduated from Tompkins with her head held high and her sights already set on College Station. The little girl from Katy had done it β€” and she was just getting started.

Alpha Chi Omega Dads Day
Texas A&M Β· Alpha Chi Omega

An Aggie. A sister. A force.

She chose Texas A&M β€” and Texas A&M was lucky to get her. As a sister of Alpha Chi Omega, studying Finance at the Mays School of Business, Taylor is living out every word of the motto she pledged to: Real. Strong. Women.

Mom and Taylor
Always & Forever

Her first best friend.

Before the volleyball courts, before College Station, before everything β€” there was Mom. The one who's been there for every moment, big and small. Some things never change, and this is one of them.
