There are so many letters circulating around the internet talking about how wonderful people’s moms are, and I am sure they are that wonderful person that you all make them seem to be, but to be honest, no one compares to my mom. You see, everyone can say that, but no one understands just how amazing my mom is.
She is my every single day super hero, she saves my life, gives me a reason to be the best I can be, and I thank god for her every single day.
This isn’t a thank you, it is more than that, kind of like a document you can keep forever just so you know how loved you are.
I should start by saying how special you are. You have qualities that not many people have all together, it is something that I admire and look up to every single day and I aspire to be half the person that you are one day.
My favorite memory with you is when you said, “The Power of the Mind is a Beautiful Thing.” Little did I know that would be stuck with me for years now, and will continue to stay with me forever. It is my life motto.
You are not only my best friend and someone that I go to for literally everything, but you know me more than I know myself. You just get who I am, some people can’t say that about their moms and I am forever grateful for our relationship. You know how to make the bad days a bit brighter and the good days even better than they already are.
You are kind, so kind. You are always willing to give more than you take, after all you are a nurse, and from many people I have talked too, one of the best around.
You have been through a lot and you continue, if not continue to be stronger than you were the day before. Hardships can either make or break a person but you chose to rise and keep going. I know every day is hard for you, but I just want you to know how much I appreciate you choosing to not let anything, in the measure of what we had gone through, bring you down.
You are grateful. You deserve the world and more but you are more worried about how our family is before we get to you. It makes me mad sometimes because you don’t realize how much of an impact you have on all of our lives.
But you know the thing I admire the most about you?
Your passion for everything is contagious
I always loved the quote, “Passion is Energy”, and that is you. You are the energy that fuels so many people. You are the one that you hear from across the soccer field cackling about something. It is a cackle that I will always be proud of.
Mom, you have taught me more than I could have ever imagined. I really don’t think I could do this whole life thing without the constant texting every single minute of the day, calling to just talk about stupid boy drama, or hugging you just because I need it. You give me the energy, the passion, the drive to be the person I am today, and I am so so so proud to say that.
All wrapped up in one sentence, I want to say;
You are the type of person that will NEVER go unnoticed.
