Because of you, Mom

Because of you, mom, I can write my S’s in the right direction. Because of you, mom, I can blow out my own hair. Because of you I love with no bounds, give with no limits, and let sparks of creativity enrage. A symbol of selflessness and upmost love, my mom puts every individual before herself. I’m on this kick of keeping it real and staying truthful… my Mom didn’t really double as my best friend until 2022. Allowing me to experience, feel, and think on my own in college for a year and half forged opportunities for my mom and I to relate. I no longer dread making return errands with my mom that I despised as a kid, instead seeing them as an opportunity to hear out my moms wisdom and be in company of her humor. A humor that I once didn’t understand, but now I seem to mirror. I find more in common with her as time passes. My habits, my style, my taste, my advice to those I love. There is no woman more giving, caring, or stronger that my mother. She is my idol, my role model, and the woman I aspire to become.

Much love,

Shaudeh
