My mom is the kindest, toughest, most accepting and understanding, most interested, most selfless, most hard-working, and most beautiful woman I know and I'm so blessed to be her daughter.
My mom always has a glass-half-full sense of optimism. When I am sad, happy or stressed, my mom is always by my side. She is my joy and comfort. She shaped my character and influenced my outlook towards this world.
My mom has strong willpower and persistence. She is the best teacher who has taught me more than anyone else, she not only inspires me with strength to overcome hardships, but also with invaluable life lessons.
My mom taught me compassion, she taught me strength, she taught me love, she taught me to give rather than receive. My mom gives the best hugs and taught me how to express love to others. No matter what ever happened in my life, I knew there was a hug waiting at home.
Mom, I hope you know just how much I love you, each and every day. Thank you for being my rock. I still want to be just like you when I grow up! ;-)
Happy Birthday Mom, I love you!!
Here's a favorite poem that says it best:
Thank you mom
for always keeping me happy, safe, protected and nourished.
Thank you for your kindness, caring and immeasurable patience.
Thank you for looking out for me even when I didn't think I needed it
and for letting me fall when I had to learn by making my own mistakes.
Thank you mom for always being there;
for waiting up and worrying, for the lectures and the endless concerns.
Thank you for laughing with me, even though I knew at times that you were also laughing at me.
Thank you for the limitless hugs, kisses, vitamins and bandaids
and for the support I receive from you every single day.
Thank you mom
for keeping me warm, for keeping me calm and for keeping me sane.
Thank you for understanding that there were times that I would be mad with you
but always forgiving me in the end.
Thank you for sticking up for me, for encouraging me, for believing in me and
for letting me know that you never expected more than the best I could do.
Thank you mom
for teaching me to be honest, courteous, appreciative and loving.
Thank you for teaching me to be neat, tidy, and organized.
Thank you for teaching me to try to see the best in people, to be diplomatic in the face of conflict,
and when I had no choice but to fight, to fight fair.
Thank you mom
for instilling in me a love for travel, books, flowers, photography and food.
Thank you for nurturing me to always try something new and to keep an open mind.
Thank you for the thousands of back rubs, millions of phone calls, and for always sending me home with left-overs. Still, to this day, you spoil me and I am incredibly grateful for it.
Thank you mom
for showing me how much beauty is around me, and reminding me of it constantly when my world feels dark and frightening.
Thank you for the endless stories, songs and games when I was young, and the endless conversation and knowing smiles now that I am older.
Thank you for putting up with thousands of diapers, my know-it-all teenage years, and my crazy 20's
And through it all, thank you for loving me no matter what.
Thank you mom
for being so smart, so beautiful, so wise and so talented. It's nice to know that I have the potential somewhere in my genetics to possibly one day be as special as you.
Mom, the words "I love you" are not adequate enough to express how grateful I am to be your daughter, how much you are appreciated or how much you will always mean to me,
so I will simply say:
Thank you mom for being my superhero, my expert-in-everything, and my very best friend.
