How can i reset my pattern pin code on the samsung S5

My daughter was playing with my pattern lock screen and now it is asking for a code. I have tried the ones it would be and im about to get locked out and lose EVERYTHING through a factory reset. Can i reset the password somehow?? I went to a verizon store and they said through a gmail account. any suggestions??

It usually asks you for your gmail account password. If mobile data is on you can do a factory reset through Android Device Manager - locate your phone, but you can do it by booting to the recovery partition too, since the phone's not lost.
