Dear Mom

Dear Mother,

There is no word or phrase that can describe how much I appreciate you

Everything here is written with pride

You’ve spent time and time again fighting the pain I know you feel but constantly hide

Just wait a minute and I will provide you with everything you deserve

And know that I mean every word

I am pleased to say our bond is like no other

Having a peaceful conversation then finding different tactics with words to hurt one another

Yet I am still pleased to call you my mother

When things got rough you said to hell with it

Loving me with every waking moment we are blessed to get

There is no word or phrase that can describe how much I appreciate you

<p>There are many we can talk about but the most important mentor to me is my mom because of the relationship we have and how strong she is as well as the type of love and care she has for me which leads me to be the person I am today.</p>
