My hero

She's not just my mother, she's my best friend.

She's not just my mother, she's the one who understands my pain.

She's not just my mother, she's the one who wakes me up in the morning.

She's not just my mother, she's the one who helps put food on the table.

She's not just my mother, she's the one who motivates me to do better.

She's not just my mother, she's the one who helps correct my wrong doings.

Day or night, she always puts her children before her. 

Behind her lion like shouts, there is that tenderous loving smile

Through her maltreatment and depression. she has managed to raise two loving kids.

Though she may work 40 hours a week in a restaurant, she works 168 hours a week being the families support.

And that is why she's not just my mother, she's my hero.
