Because you deserve it
Dear Mom and Dad,
I truly am thankful for everything you guys have done for me. I know I don't say it enough but just know that everything you do, doesn't go unrecognized.
Thank you for never letting me give up. There have been times that I've wanted to and thought I was going nowhere, but you two always told me to keep going.
Thank you for raising me right. As you get older you see who was raised right and who was not.
Thank you for believing in me. There's been plenty of times that I didn't believe in myself whether it'd be in school or with sports, but you guys always did.
Thank you for making me get a job at sixteen. My sixteen-year-old self definitely hated you for this, but I have to admit I've learned a lot from working, and definitely made some money.
Thank you for letting me make mistakes and not getting mad at me about it. I think part of growing up is making mistakes, I needed to fail and learn how to get back up and try again.
Thank you for being my number one fan. I know that sitting in the cold on a rainy day watching lacrosse wasn't what you wanted to be doing, but you still did it for me.
Thank you for putting up with my attitude. I've gotten better with it over the past few years, but dealing with pre-teen me definitely was tough.
Thank you for showing me love. You two have showed me what true love is like, and Dad showed me how a man is supposed to treat a women.
I could go on for days thanking you both for everything you've done for me. Parenting isn't easy, especially with a kid like me, but I think you guys are killing it.
Love always,
Your Daughter
