In 2021, Colleen shared her pride in her daughter Lacey’s growth, saying how much a difference a day can make.

Lacey had been overwhelmed and cried during her first-ever soccer game, but the next day, she returned to the field, played, and truly enjoyed it. Colleen was so proud of her for overcoming her fear.

What a difference a day makes!! Lacey stood in the middle of the field and cried at her first ever soccer game yesterday, but then today, she went out and played and she loved it!! I’m so proud of her for overcoming her fear!!
