9 Reasons To Thank Your Boyfriend's Mother

Boyfriends give countless reasons to be thankful. From keeping you calm to making your heart throb, boyfriends definitely make life a lot better. Thanking boyfriends for all that they do is extremely important, but what about the ladies that shaped them into who they are today? Here is a thank you to the woman who gave me one of the most important guys in my life!

1. Thank you for teaching him to be a gentleman.

It is hard to find a boy who will open doors, and say please and thank you. Thank you for bringing up one of the few.

2. Thank you for teaching him not to stress.

In today's life it can be easy to sweat the small stuff. Thank you for bringing up a boy who can make the best out of any situation. There are things to stress about and others not to -- you taught him the difference.

3. Thank you for giving him a personality.

Starting conversation can be like pulling teeth. Thank you for making him different. Thank you for giving him a sense of humor and wit. There is no one on this earth that can make me laugh and smile like your son.

4. Thank you for giving him his smile.

There is nothing in this whole world that can make my day like his smile. In just one second my day can go from unbearable to unimaginable with his smile. Thank you for that.

5. Thank you for raising a man.

You have raised a man. He understands the importance of a woman. He is respectful and kind. He would never lay a finger on a girl or start unprovoked boyish fighting. Thank you for raising a man with dignity.

6. Thank you for showing him passion.

There is nothing worse than trying to get to know someone who is generic. If there is nothing that makes someone different, there is nothing that makes them well... them! Thank you for giving your son passion and depth. Our relationship is never dull because of his many passions. Thank you for that.

7. Thank you for giving him drive.

Alongside passion comes drive. Your son encompasses both. He has big dreams and aspirations, but I never doubt he will conquer all he desires. He has drive and ability, and I thank you for that.

8. Thank you for making him genuine.

It is a reality of today that everyone has to worry about cheating and deception. I never do. I know you have created a genuine man with morals who would never use a facade against me.

9. Thank you for giving him to me.

Here is my biggest thank you. Without you, I would never have had the chance to meet this amazing man. Thank you for creating the most amazing, genuine, and loving boy I have ever met.

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

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

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. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

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.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
