    Thank You, Mom: A Celebration of Love

    Thank you, mom.

    Thank you for having me, for carrying me and nurturing me before I ever set foot outside your womb.

    For loving me and teaching me and yelling at me.

    Thank you for chasing after me, for never letting go or giving up..

    Thank you for existing, I would be nothing, not even a thought in this grand universe if not for you.

    Thank you for being you, for teaching me all of the best parts of you.

    For letting me carry you with me in my heart.

    For being the best person, mother, friend I could ever want. 

    You are the most amazing person I know, the most kind and caring with the most beautiful smile and laugh.

    Thank you, mom.

    For all of your pain and your sacrifice

    Thank you for it all.

    For everything you’ve done that we couldn’t see, for all the things you did that we could.

    I can’t thank you enough. 

    I could never give you enough. 

    Thank you, mom. Just thank you.

    For living this life and allowing me to witness it.

    For laughing out loud with your whole body.

    For your advice on conflict management.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you.

    I have no bad memories of you, no ill will or hurt feelings 

    But I would relive every argument, every fight we ever had just so we can make up and get to where we are now, in the end.

    Mom thank you for being my very best friend, my counselor, my teacher, my reason. 

    I just wish I could keep you forever.

    Wish we could swap places so you could feel all of the love in my heart for you.

    Mami thank you
