My Greatest Hero

As you all know, today is Mothers Day, so I would like to make a tribute to my mother.

 My mother is the most amazing person I know. She is my greatest hero. She is a beacon of light to me. She is the strongest personI know, and I can only wish to be half the woman she is. 

My mum has taught me so much, even beyond the normal, how to walk, how to talk, eat, etc. She is one of the funniest people I know... Okay maybe not so much, but she thinks shes hilarious so that is close enough... I always laugh.... Even though she normally has to make us laugh... She's taught me to love old movies, and now every time I see Cary Grant my heart stops.  She has taught me how to annoy the crap out of someone in the morning, I swear even now I can hear her singing at the top of her lungs in the morning to get me up. "Good Morning Good Morning you slept the whole night through, good morning good morning to youu!!!!" She has taught me how to properly watch movies in the theater (Back Row Middle), even if it means getting there 45 minutes early. She taught me how to properly prepare for Sundays. One must always have Potato Chips, Chocolate and Diet Coke (With WAY to much ice), it is the only way to stay sane. She loves me too, enough to sit through episode after episode of  Barney, Arthur, and Doctor Who.  She has guided me through my many "ailments" from thinking I had Lupus to Cancer (in nearly every form), she has always been there to tell me to shut up and stop being silly ;).  

Outside of silly things, my mother has guided me with a normally quiet voice to make the right decisions. She has lifted me up and always supported me in my decisions even when she has not been happy about my decisions. She has loved me in a quiet (and sometimes not quiet way), She has helped me find my way in the world. She has always been there when I need her the most. She installed in me many of my greatest attributes in life, my love for the gospel, my love for reading, and my determination. She has taught me that I am worth so much, and that I should only strive for the best.  

I love this woman more than anything, I am so very proud of her, and I am so glad that I could be raised by this wonderful woman.

Happy Mothers Day Mum
