Mom,
I never realized how much you sacrificed for me as my mother. Now that I am a mother I am beginning to realize HOW MUCH you have done for me.  I am grateful for all of the sleepless nights you had so that you could comfort me when I wasn't feeling good. I am grateful for the many times you put my happiness before yours. I am grateful that you were there for me when I was scared, alone, and sad. I am grateful that I have a best friend as well as a mother.

Thank you for teaching me the hard lessons in life even though it may have not been the easier choice. Thank you for taking me to ballet lessons, dance team practice, mutual etc... so I could do what I loved.
Thank you for loving me unconditionally so that I could love.
Thank you for showing me by example how to be a mother.
Thank you for not being perfect so that I don't feel as bad. :)
Thank you for telling me I was beautiful, smart, kind, and honest.
Thank you for helping me find my testimony.

I will always love you mom. Thank you.  xoxo
