I have a really bad procrastination habit... and for some reason my mother always reaps the consequences. She never receives my gifts on time. Although she has a gift currently in the mail for Mother's Day... I decided to create something for her to receive instantaneously tomorrow! Thank god for the internet! :)
When I love someone SO much… I often times find myself at a loss for words of how to “describe” my love. Tonight, I’ll be honest and let you know that I actually Googled “Mother’s Day Letter Examples”…
When I read the miniscule examples on the internet, I realized that I was trying way TOO hard for my wording or grammar to sound perfect… and started thinking about the REAL reasons that I love my mother…
It starts back when I was a toddler & we moved to Huntington Beach, California. She moved us to this amazing beach town (knowing that it would be a fabulous growing up experience for us – and she was 100% right!!) However, she still worked SO far away … and she dealt with the commute. On her way to work everyday… she would always stop to get me an Apple Juice in a glass jar & a Nutter Butter. Perhaps she contributed to my FAT tendencies, but, in the long run – she always taught me how to be healthy!
On weekends…. She would throw me onto the back seat of her bicycle… and we would ride along the beach. She stopped every time I asked… as, I was on a mission to collect as many beautiful sea shells that I could find. She never failed to save every single sea shell that I collected… she kept them all in buckets until I was an adult and could make the choice to get rid of them on my own. Unfortunately…. I did.; but only for circumstantial purposes.
My mother made it a priority to keep me active in things like dance lessons, horse riding and Junior Life Guards. I will never forget the experiences that I was given as a child… and I think all of those experiences molded me into the fabulous person that I am today. Yes, I think I am fabulous… I’m not afraid to say it… and it’s all Thanks to my fabulous mother!
As far as the modern day goes, she has become one of my best friends. She listens to all of my rants and raves. She helps me out with any problems. And, she is simply, the one person that I know who is always there for me. She backs up all of the choices I make with respect, while still giving me her honest opinion about specific situations. I’m not really sure how I would function without her honest support & advice…
I could go on forever about this amazing women & what she's done for me; but, I’d prefer to keep this short and sweet (just like my mom!) There are times when she knows I desperately need something… and she gives it to me. Yet, there are times when she knows when I need some things taken away from me in order to learn a lesson – and she’s always right.
She is the queen of my world…. I would give my life for her…. And I love her to death. …. I feel so unfortunate to not be able to spend the day with her… but I know that I am so fortunate to still have her in this world. Not everyone has that luxury… And, I just pray that everyone has a positive, loving, happy, Mother’s Day!
LOVE YOU MOM!!! … and missing you!
