It's Mother's Day today and I was just thinking about how the next time I'll talk to my mom on Mother's Day will be through Skype next year. I just wanted to tell my mom I appreciate her in every way possible, although my actions and words may not always express that gratitude. No one can say they know me as well as my mother knows me. She will forever and always be my closest and best friend. Not many daughters would trust their mom to go out and shop for clothes for them, but I trust her. We often find ourselves running over to each other from across a store with some shirt or something and as we go to show each other, we find out it is the exact same one. We KNOW each other. She understands my unique way of describing things. She is the one I talk to when I feel sick, worried, excited, or over whelmed. She has encouraged and uplifted me. She has pushed me to strive for excellence. She has put up with my embarrassing ways since I was a little girl and continues to do so. She is the epitome of strength, love, courage, and forgiveness. She is not a quitter. She loves with her whole heart and has an incredible empathy for all living things. She is dedication. She is charity. She is my mother and I love her.She'll never think she is smart enough, but she is.
She'll never think she has accomplished enough, but she has.
She'll never think she has given her children as much as they deserve, but she's given us more.
She'll never think she is beautiful, but she is beyond that.
She'll never think she has given us as many opportunities as we could have had, but she has.
She'll never think she has done enough, but she has done enough and then some.
She'll never think she is role model, but she's mine.
She'll never think she has enough power to make a difference, but she made me and my brothers.
Dear Mama,
You're more than you think and you mean more to us than you'll ever know.
I love you.
