Thank You For Giving Me Everything
You never told me no and I appreciate that generosity. I know kids can be expensive and demanding.
From supporting me emotionally through my awkward middle school days, to sacrificing your personal time after your long days at work to talk me through my problems when no one else cared, to supporting me financially through college, you have always been there.
You have sacrificed so much in order to give me a better life than you had when you were a kid.
Thank You For Always Believing In Me
Life has been difficult and there have been times when I’ve felt like giving up, when things were not going my way. Each time, you were there to remind me of my worth as a human being.
You encouraged me to keep reaching for the unreachable and never settle for anything less than I deserved. No matter how bizarre my dreams were — from becoming president or a meteorologist or a professional dog walker or a food truck operator — you always told me to go after what would make me happy.
As I get older, I realize more and more how much you have done for me and continue to do every day.
This Mother’s Day, thank whomever you call “Mom” for being the best on the planet at her job. Happy Mother’s Day, Mom.
