My mother is my number one hero. No matter what happens. no one can take her place. My mother has raised my brother and me all on her own ever since I was six. Really way before then, my mother and father were together when I was growing up during the age of 1-5. But even though he was there, he still wasn't playing his part very well. Actually if you ask me he was just making everything harder on my mom by breaking up stuff, taking her money and spending on other things, bringing drama to my mother with other females. etc

So eventually my mother, being the strong woman that she is, she had finally had enough and left him. She has always made sure that we were well groomed and had the best! We've always had a nice house and nice things and made sure that our tummies were always full. Even though all the extras & expensive things really don't matter. She knew what we wanted and would do everything she could to make sure that we had it! She worked two jobs and even one on the weekend, feeding children whose parents weren't at home or able to take care of them.

My junior year my mother's father had passed away. I've never seen my mother so hurt. As her being the baby of the family I could really say that she took full charge of responsibility. Even though my mother is the single parent with two kids. She put up more that her half to make sure that my grandfather was buried like he wanted to. She also found my grandmother a house to live in and made it as homey as possible.

My mom has spent her whole life taking care of others. And for that she is my hero. Now that I am 18 and I am going to college I am going to do whatever I have to do to be successful, not just to make my mother happy, but also one day take care of her. And supply her with nothing but the best and all my heart of love!

:) I love you mom
