If you have a mother anything like mine, you will know all of these signs to be true. Mommy, if you're reading this, please know that you are amazing.
1) The pantry is always stocked with your favorite snacks.
2) When you hear her car pull up outside, you get so excited because your best friend is home.
3) She slips you a $20 bill even though she doesn't have to but she knows you're a struggling college student who spends money irresponsibly.
4) Somehow when you forget to do something really important, chances are she's already done it for you.
5) Whenever she doesn't answer her phone, you think something happened to her because she always answers.
6) She always has your back, but isn't afraid to tell you when you're wrong.
7) She is always harping on important things on your checklist. You might think it's nagging, but she is doing it because she cares.
8) At the end of the day, she is both your mom and your best friend, and you're so thankful that you can go to her for anything.
Mommy, thank you for all that you do. I love you.
