Mom

Mom you have been there for me countless times, 
When i need a shoulder to cry on, 
When i need to just vent, 
When i just need a laugh. 

Mom, you are my best friend, 
When i’m heartbroken or lost or even confused, 
You know what words to say to make me feel better, 
Without you i’d be lost and alone. 

You mean the whole world to me, 
I can’t imagine what i’d do without having you in my life, 
Thank you for taking me in as a young pre-teen. 
You’re the mother I never had growing up. 
You have helped me through everything. 

Happy mother’s day mom! 
I love you.
