My mom is truly a strong, beautiful woman, and I never realized how strong she really was until now.
Life is never easy; some days can be harder then others, but my mom has always been by my side.
Growing up, she was there cheering me on no matter what sport I was playing or watching me at track practice from afar.
She even took me to my very first make-up appointment and made me feel like a star.
She was there in support and cried with me during my first break-up.Â
Some days we would just sit and do nothing and laugh and act silly.
No matter what I did or what my dreams were, she was always there by my side and supported me 100 percent. Even when I felt like college was too hard and I wanted to quit, my mom was there, and I graduated because of her support.
I want to also thank my mom for the gorgeous wedding she helped provide for me. I couldn’t ask for anything more.
My mom has given me everything: confidence, guidance, support and love—just to name a few—and I am the person I am today because of her.
I wish I could give back what she has given to me, but I don’t think that could ever be possible. My mom is my angel, and I love her with all of my heart. I love you Mom!
Happy Mother’s Day today and everyday.
