Mothers are the unsung heroes of today's world. They have been there since before day one (literally and figuratively). I don't think it is possible to repay the love, devotion, and dedication my mom has shown over the short 19 years of my life. She has been there through the thick and thin of the embarrassingly awkward hand I've been dealt. Because of this, I have come to believe that my mother is an angel. And here's why:
1. She always seems to know exactly what I need.
Whether it's advice, a gift, or a simple hug, my mom always knows how to make me smile and fix my problems.
2. She knows how to fix me.
Spiritually, mentally, and physically, my mom has always known the remedy to every ailment I've suffered through and all the crap that life has to offer.
3. She has never left my side.
From my conception to the day she (or myself) dies, I know she will always be by my side to scare off the bullies and offer words of comfort and encouragement.
4. She is my biggest cheerleader.
At sporting events, college admissions, or musical events my mom has always been there to cheer embarrassingly loud so that all the other moms know who she is.
5. She's taught me to stand up for myself.
Mom's are the greatest teachers known to man and my mom is the best of the best.
6. She's hip af.
She knows how to 'flex' in her decked out 'whip' and show the 'thots' who's 'on fleek'.
7. She is the world's greatest cook.
After a year of ramen and microwave burritos, there is nothing I value more than a home-cooked meal from my mom.
8. She loves me unconditionally.
No matter what I do or say, I know, without a shadow of a doubt, that my mom will love me unconditionally forever and always.
Disney has brought us some of the greatest examples of mothers we could ever hope for. But let's not take our own mothers for granted. In honor of Mother's Day, let's show our moms how much they really mean to us. Take the time to let your mother know that you love them and they mean the world to you.
To my own mom: Thank you for all you do and sacrifice for me! I love you to the moon and back!
