An Open Letter To My lovely Mother: Thank You For Being My Hero

An Open Letter To My Mother: Thank
You For Being My Hero
       To my Mom,
Thank you.
Thank you for being there for me. You have been my
biggest fan through every single stage of my life and I
couldn’t ask for a better cheerleader. Thank you for
knowing when I was wrong and spanking me when I
was being a brat. I may not have liked it then, but
looking back, I know I’m better off. Thank you for
holding me while I cried and promising me that
tomorrow would be a better day. You’ve been my rock
through breakups, life decisions, and new chapters.
You’ve carried me through when I was convinced I
couldn’t go on. I am eternally grateful. Most importantly, thank
you for showing me right from wrong, for encouraging
me in my walk of faith, and for teaching me the value
of respect not only for others, but for myself as well .
I love you, Mom. You’re my role model and even
though I laughed at everyone who told me this would
happen, you’re my best friend . I got my independence
and my sass from you, and I couldn’t be more
thankful. Sometimes, I know I get busy, but you are
so appreciated. Certainly I wouldn’t be the man I
am today if it weren’t for you. So, thank you – for
absolutely everything. You’re my hero.
Love always,
your Son
