It's hard to be at school for one reason in particular. I miss my mom. She's quite possibly the greatest person I know, and one of the people that I trust most in this world. I know that when I'm away, she misses me so much, even though she doesn't like to admit it to me. I know she worries about me constantly.
1. I love you.
2. I'm brushing my teeth regularly.
I grew up with you checking my teeth regularly, and I know that deep down a part of you wonders if I keep my teeth clean. But you should know that I am brushing regularly.
3. I'm being responsible.
All of my work is getting done on time. I'm staying on top of all of responsibilities and nothing is getting past me.
4. I'm eating, not super healthy, but I'm eating.
I know that one of your biggest worries when I come home is that I've had enough to eat. Don't worry, I'm definitely not starving to death.
5. I miss you, too.
Being away from you is the hardest part of being at school. I know I don't always show it, but I miss you each and every day.
6. You did a great job.
I'm only doing as great as I am because you were there to make sure that I always did my best.
7. I'm happy.
I don't want you to worry about this most of all. I'm okay, and if anything was really wrong, you'd be the first person I'd go to.
