Mom Hero Essay

by Mai from Blue Sky

My Mother

My mother is a wonderful woman. She's the best mother that I could ever have. She's the one person in my life that I could trust the most. I could tell my mother anything in the world and she'll understand me. I'm glad that she is my mother.

About 3 years ago my parents got a divorce. That year was so hard for me. I was so stressed and I didn't know what to do until my mom explained to me why. It took me awhile to understand. My mom was there for me when I needed someone the most. Without my dad, everything seem to fall apart. But for my mom, being a single parent to the family was even harder. My mom knew that every summer the bills are going to be expensive. She worked very hard at the farm to get vegetables to sell at the farmers market to get money. By doing that she makes a lot of profit. But the hard part was her waking up early everyday going to the market and then after the market, it was heading to the farm. When she gets to the farm, she has to pick certain plants. After that she had to wash them. Doing that everyday non stop for five days is very hard. I know that my mom would be so tired from doing all of the hard work.

I know that my mom wants the whole family to succeed in life. She never gives up on anyone in the family. She's the one who keeps everyone in the family going. I'm so happy that my mom is a strong person and is willing to keep the family together.
