My Mom =)

Its almost the end of her birthday, so I think I'll spend a few minutes to talk about her.

Have you ever realized how much work mothers do? Well I do! My mom is amazing. She tries her absolute hardest to be good at everything she does.

Her daily schedule amazes me. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday she gets up at 7am and tells me "Aww, you look so pretty" everyday, even if I do look terrible. But I know in her eyes that I couldn't be prettier, which really makes me feel special. She gets in the shower...getting ready to start one of her busy days. Gets dressed and yanks my brother out of bed. If you know anything about my brother getting him up is soo much fun. He drags in the mornings. So Mom physically walks him to the bathroom. Somehow she manages to get him and herself ready by 8:30am and heads to the elementary to take Dallas to school. Then heads to work until 11:30am and comes and gets me from high school. We usually grab a quick lunch and eat on the way back. Then she teaches the next preschool class. Now...if you think her day is over now--you are wrong! She gets Dallas by 3:30 and we get home about 3:45pm. Thats when its time to clean! She rushes around the house cleaning and cleaning just so the rest of us can make more of a mess for her to clean. Then supper. She cooks and serves us all before she eats. So she usually gets her plate when Dallas is on his 3rd plate. She sits down to eat....ahhh nice feeling. Then usually laundary after dinner. Finally after a long days work...she falls asleep.

Now for Tuesdays and Thursdays...Mom gets up at 7am. Gets ready for work and gets Dallas up and their out of the house by 8:30 again. ( I forgot to mention that 3/4s of the time she takes Dallas to Tim Hortons!) Then off to work. Another stressful day of preschoolers screaming and crying and throwing fits. Then off to pick me up at 11:30. We then usually come back home to eat lunch...sometimes we go out. Then by 1:45pm I'm in college. Now any other ordinary mother would drop off their child and leave! Not my mom! She sits and waits for around an hour for me while I'm in class because she doesn't want to be late getting me. =) I have a great mom. Then off to pick up Dallas from school and back home to clean, cook supper and laundary. Does she ever stop??? No of course not!

I fail to realize all that my mom does for me. I love her so much. And I am the worst at showing her how much I love her. She cares about my every move. All through her busy life she makes time for me, to spend with me, to love me. =) I have a great mom. I wouldn't know what to do without her. She is amazing at everything she does. I regret everything I've ever said about my mother that was not a true statement. And the truth is...She's the best mom in the whole world. I couldn't ask for anyone better! I thank God everyday that she's my mom. Sometimes we fight and argue but minutes later I'm talking to her again. I mean seriously how do you fight with someone that you love with all your heart?

My mom is everything to me. I think the next time I argue with her...I'll remember that she is my mom who loves me with all of her heart!

Happy Birthday Mom. I love you!
