❤️💪🏼👊🏼
This moment happened in the Champion Other Cross drive at San Antonio.
Two competitors. Two families that both worked hard to get there.
But look closely. The smile behind her says everything.
Real competitors push each other to be better. They chase the same goals, compete in the same drives, and still find joy in each other’s success.
You can want to win.
You can work relentlessly to be the best.
AND you can still be genuinely happy for the person standing next to you when the judge shakes their hand.
That isn’t weakness. Rather, it is the kind of maturity and character this industry is meant to build.
The next time someone asks, “What does showing livestock teach kids?” I hope the answer goes deeper than the usual “hard work and dedication.”
Maybe it includes this.
Real proud of you two young ladies. Thank you for being exactly who you are.
