Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day to the most beautiful and fabulous woman on the planet!

There are a million reasons why my mother is such a fascinating woman and such a perfect mom to my sisters and me. It'd be impossible to find the words and/or even possibly list everything that my mother has done for us and all that she means to me. Nevertheless, I'd still like to honor her by thanking her for all that she's done. 

Therefore, a few reasons why I'm grateful that my mother is who she is....

• My mother is selfless
• She was not only our mother, but was also a "father" to us for many years
• She stressed the importance of an education and good grades
• She has supported me in everything that I do - from travelling abroad alone (for a year) when I was only 17 to choosing my major in college to loving the man that I married as if he were a son
• My mom is a hard worker and has been a great example of what one can accomplish when working diligently
• She is a good listener
• She is fair, honest, and has a kind heart
• My mother has endured suffering without ever complaining and has never shown a sign of weakness, regardless of the situation
• She has taught me so much that I don't even know where to begin with describing all that I've learned from her
• Her love is unconditional
• Her faith is strong and has always been
• She is intelligent and beautiful
• My mother is classy and well spoken
• I am proud to be my mother's daughter
• I can only hope that I will be a tenth of the woman that my mother is
• My mother is a perfect role model
• She makes me whelm with pride to say "that's my mom"
• She has never made excuses for anything
• My mom is proud of the husband that I chose
• She is never, nor has she ever been, pushy
• She knows exactly what to say to me, and how to say it
• My mother is fabulous, gorgeous, and one in a million

I could go on and on and on....but then this post would be pages long and would take hours to read.

Thank you for everything you have ever done, continue to do, and will do for me, and my husband, in the future. My love for you is as limitless as yours has been for me.

With respect, admiration, and unconditional love, your daughter,
