As I think back to all the years we spent together I realize that you have always been there for me. Of course, I knew this all along, but it had never really hit home until today when I called you to say Happy Mother’s Day.
Even when I was the brattiest of the brats, and I was a brat, you still accepted me.
Even when I turned my back on you and did things you didn’t approve of, you still loved me.
Even when you warned me about the one I married (and you were right!), you still supported my choice
Even when I let you down, you picked me up and told me I could succeed.
And, even though we live 2,000 miles apart, I still think daily about how you never gave up on me. This is something I hope to pass on to my children. Although it has been a difficult ride, I know I will always love them just as much as you love me.
Thank you, Mom. You’re the best Mother a girl could ever have. I love you.
To all the Moms out there, Happy Mother’s Day. May your kids be as proud of and your children cherish you as much as I cherish my Mom.
