Mom

For all the times you were there for me
I have learned thankfulness
For the patience you have always 
   shown me
I have learned respect
For all my good childhood memories  you 
   allowed me
I have learned trust

For all the generosity you have shown me
I have learned to give 
For showing me right from wrong
I have learned integrity
For the times you taught me I can do 
   anything
I have learned independence

For the strength you have always shown 
   to me
I have learned endurance
For the morals you followed and 
   taught me
I have learned self respect
For all the love you have given me Mom
I have learned how lucky I am
