Dear Mom,
Wow, it is hard to believe that you have been my mom for more than 19 years! Time sure does fly! I hear you say it to me all the time. I seriously could not imagine how my time here would be without you. You are the light of my life and the journey to it. You have been there by my side through just about everything. We have been connected since day one. After all, you did give me a home for nine months before I was really even a human! I wanted to take the time to write you this letter. Words simply could not do justice for how much you have done for me. I am going to try my best to not make you cry, because we can all get a little sensitive sometimes. Anyways, let me get down to the point of this letter.
If I were to look up your name in the dictionary this is what I would be expecting to find:
Sari Jill Sax, Noun: The most genuine person you will ever meet. She is always putting others before herself, which makes her extremely selfless. This woman puts 110 percent into everything she does. Never giving up on anything she sets her mind to. Goes above and beyond in making sure she gives her husband and two daughters the absolute best life they deserve.
This person is my mom.
Life without you would not even be life at all. You are a part of my everyday routine and not having you would throw off my life completely. Without you, my life would be chaos. I always think to myself how lucky I am to have a mom like you. You have been there for me though the ups and the downs. The laughs and the tears. We have way too many memories to name, but I will always remember the story of when Sorelle was born. I was 3 years old at the time, and all you ever knew was me. You had your one and only little baby girl. All along, for three years, it was me and you. I was the love of your life after I was born (other than dad, of course). It was July 13, 2000, when Sorelle came into the world. I walked into the hospital room and saw you holding my new baby sister, and immediately you started crying. I looked so big to you because after all, I was 3 years old and you were holding a newborn baby. Once I was old enough to understand the story, you told me that you started crying because you thought that you had ruined my life by having another child. That the attention was no longer on me and that I would have to share my mommy with someone else. Little did you ever know that by bringing my baby sister into this world, you had far from ruined my life, but made it just a little brighter. There are so many things that I wish I could thank you for, but the number one thing: being my mom. I will never stop loving you, Mom. Time will never stop flying, but you can always guarantee that I will never stop being your little baby girl.
All my love,
Devsterpumpernickel
