I love you Mommy!
Twenty-one years ago, I bet it was hard to be
A single parent taking care of two kids,
With no support, all on your own.
Twenty-one years ago, I bet you were glad
That you listened to the voice in your mind
Telling you to keep me safe and never let me go.
Twenty-one years ago, I bet you never
Thought you’d have a daughter
graduating from high school with high honors.
Twenty-one years ago, I bet you never
thought you'd have a daughter going to college
to pursue her dreams of becoming a successful
business owner.
Twenty-one years ago, I bet you NEVER thought you'd be
the greatest mentor to your daughter who
would never want it to be anyone else other
than you.
Twenty-one years ago, I bet you never thought you’d
Have a daughter telling you,
“I love you mommy!
If it weren’t for you, I honestly
Don’t know where I would be today.
You taught me everything I needed to know
And more. You will forever be my teacher.”
