Mums The Word









From day one I have concidered myself a daddy's a girl. Who wouldn't be with a father like mine? He is the most gentle, kind hearted wonderful man I have ever known. And I love him with my whole heart. But as I grow into my own I'm starting to realize that the one person in this world that I need the most, is my mom. Not to say I love my father any less, but there is something so special and unique about a mother and daughter bond. There is no one that understands you as much as your mother does, and it's almost frightening how well mine gets me. So this is my "thank you" to you mom.


Thank you mom...

For being the backbone to our family.
For never saying "I told you so".
For your love.
For my sister.
For teaching me not to take no as an answer.
For pushing me.
For teaching me how to hammer in a nail with a shoe.
For your strength.
For your inspiration.
For my father.
For teaching me that the color pink, in no way goes with the color red.
For lifting me up.
For teaching me to bargin shop.
For being there when I have a bad day.
For showing me what a beautiful soul looks like.
For making me realize I can have it all.
For not allowing me to settle.
For showing me that you can have a family and a sucessful career.
For memories, the good, bad, funny and sad.
For your nose : ).
For your patience.
For not being perfect (that's way too boring).
For teaching me to roll with the punches.
For giving me someone to look up to.
For passing down your quirky sayings.

But most of all, thank you for being my mom, my beautiful, strong amazing mother. I am truely blessed to have you in my life. I love you.
