Whether they're yours from birth or were given to you afterwards, your mom is your role model, your best friend, and your biggest supporter.They nursed us, fed us and clothed us. They were there whenever you fell down to help you get back up. They were your shoulder to cry on and a hand to hold when you were scared.
They showed us love and compassion and patience even if we didn’t always show it back. They’re there when we are happy to cheer us on and when we are sad for us to lean on.
