Pam has always been my glamorous big sister - 13 years older than I. She played on the women's circuit for nine years and came home to tell me stories of France, Japan.

My sister and I are opposites in many ways. She is six feet tall, while I'm five feet four.

By the time I was 9, I was frequently asked to play exhibitions at grand openings, fund-raisers for charities, and other special events.

My brother Jeff is now my agent at Advantage International in Washington, D.C.

I was too young to take it all in. I was too young to even realize I was young. I was just living my life.

Make sure your daughter's goal is her goal, not your goal.
