"Mother carries the child in her womb for nine months and in her heart for the rest of her life".
These few words sum up the meaning and significance of the word Mother. Mother is undoubtedly the most beautiful and lovable word in any language. This goes to show the importance of mother in our lives. Mother stands for millions of things she gives to her children; it also stands for sacrifices pain, grief and sorrows which she has to undergo to keep her children happy and secure. No joy can match the joy of a mother looking at her child, those craving eyes-deeper than a whole ocean. The most important woman in an individual's life is her/his mother. Her presence affects us our entire life and she can't be replaced by anyone.
To my mother- You have been the best influence one could have. Even though we have gone through both rough times and good times, I have learned from everything that we have gone through. I haven't always been the easiest child, but I think that we both agree that I have turned out okay. I know that I wouldn't be the woman I am today without you. You have given me the push, the drive and the courage to do the things that I am doing. I will always be grateful for the support you have given me. I love you to death and always will. I am surprised that we are both doing so well now that I have officially gone out on my own.
To Maureen- Thank you for the support you have given me this past month. I think that I would have gone insane if I didn't have you to talk to. You have helped me stay focused while still allowing me to have fun. Your support means the world to me. I couldn't have asked for a better step-mother. I truly believe and feel everything that was written in your card. I love you and thank you again for all your help. At this point in my life, I am happy that I have you to help keep me grounded.
