Tierney Riccitelli

Every single day, I take my mother for granted. Since the day I was born, I have never cherished my mother enough. Yes, I recognize that she does all of these wonderful amazing things for me, but what do I do for her? What do any of us do for our mothers? With Mother's Day approaching, I really thought that my mom should receive the recognition she deserves for all of the amazing things she has done for me in life. After the past few months where I am sure that I drove her insane, here are 28 reasons why I love my mother.

1. She is not afraid to tell me when I am wrong.

2. Any time I ask her to read my papers for school, she will.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.
