“But fear isn’t what my daughter needed from me.”

Patience.
Problem-solving.
Hope.

Parents rarely receive recognition for the countless decisions they make every day.
Packing extra water.

Emma didn’t think of herself as brave.
She simply did what countless parents strive to do every day: protect the person they loved most.
