Say won't you Say

Karen's Day

In light of Mother's Day I thought I would just write a few words about what my mom means to me. She is my best friend and the most amazing person I've ever known in real life. She is so selfless and sacrificial for her family and has always done everything in her power to make sure that we always had everything that we needed, no matter what that meant she had to do. She is hard worker, she never does anything halfway and always strived to instill that into us as her children, (whether we full grasped that concept is still to be determined, hahaha) Over the last 21 years my mom and I have been through a lot together. Although I was very young there were times in my life and my moms where I know she felt like I was all she had and it was in those times that I felt her love more than ever. Now being 21 it's hard for me to grasp how when my mom was 21 she was a single mom, working a 40+ hour a week work week, while taking care of a newborn baby ( Me). There is no way that I could be doing that right now, my mom has to be super woman! Now at 43, and 3 more children later, she is more beautiful and loving than ever. My whole life people have told me how much I look like my mom and the older I get the more I see that it's completely true~I can't think of anyone that I would rather be a mirror image of. To be able to reflect just a handful of traits that my mom possesses is such a blessing. How I will be able to be half the mother she is someday is going to be a challenge, but luckily I have a great friend and teacher in mom who will help me out along the way just as she always has! Don't forget to tell Your mom how much she means to you today!
