Dear Mom

Where do I even begin? I guess I’ll go back to when you and dad brought me into this world on March 23, I apologize for being two months late. I guess that was a sign that I was going to be a huge pain in the ass. Thank you for teaching me how to talk, to teaching me how to drive a car, and to treat others, everything. I know I’ve got a friend in you.

Now here we are, I’m about to be going into my junior year in high school already and it’s unbelievable to me. We’ve both been through so much together over these past years. Sometimes I feel like a take you for granted. And I hate that more than anything. You’ve done so many things for me.

Almost every other night i facetime with my mom for about half an hour.

in high school I used to tell her every little detail about my life, and even though I live away from you, it makes me really happy that i still can do that. she’s always there to comfort me when I’m sad or laugh with me when I’m happy, and even though we’re not physically near we are still really close. I’m really lucky to be able to maintain a great relationship with her.

I really don’t think i could handle this whole “college” thing if i couldn’t talk to her whenever i want. I know I have to grow up eventually, but I will always be your baby, mommy. I love you so much.
