My Idol, My friend….My Mom

What can I say that would accurately define who my mother is and exactly how much she really means to me?  How do I fully express my gratitude towards the woman who has done so much for me? 

In all honesty… there aren’t enough words to capture the amount of love, respect, and appreciation I have for my mother.  For years (my entire life), she has selflessly given and done so much.  Many things of which I don’t deserve, and many more I will never be able to repay or return the favor.  She’s my biggest critic, yet my biggest fan!  She truly does it all…

You are beautiful, honest, and kind.

You sacrifice your time, teach us right from wrong, encourage self-respect, and remind us to stay true to ourselves.

You are strong, independent, and inspiring.

You love us unconditionally, encourage us to never give up, and make sure we know the importance of family.

You are a gentle smile, soft touch, and a warm hug.

You continually put our needs before yours and always want us to be happy.

You are compassionate, observant, and understanding.

You bounce back from repeated setbacks and fight hard for the things you want.

You are Super Woman in disguise.

You’re love for us is unmeasurable.

You are truly one of a kind.

You’re my best friend.

God gave me the best MOM!

You are the most important woman in my life and if I turn out to be half the woman you are, I will have succeeded!

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!

Happy Mother’s Day, MOM
