An Open Letter to My Mom

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at IUP chapter.

An Open Letter to My Mom

 

Dear Mom,

 

I honestly don’t even know where to start.  You have provided me with so much and for that I am so grateful.  Although we argue 85% of the time I would not be where I am today without you.

 

I cannot say thank you enough for everything that you gave and taught me.  Thank you does not express the adornment I have for you.

 

Thank you for the countless arguments because they are what made us closer.

 

Thank you for loving me endlessly no matter what.

 

Thank you for guiding me towards all of my success.

 

Thank you for providing me with shelter, food, and warmth throughout all of the years.

 

Thank you for laughing at and with me because of all the dumb things we did.

 

Thank you for teaching me what it is like to be a caring individual.

 

Thank you for being there for me no matter what and supporting me with everything I have accomplished.

 

Thank you for being one of the people who accepts me for who I am.

 

Thank you for raising me to be the strong, independent woman that I was meant to be.

 

Without you I would not have experiences, memories, and knowledge that I have now.  I love you to the moon and back.  Thank you! Xoxo :)

 

Hellooo! I am your average teenage girl besides all of the quirkiness and energy I carry along with me :) I am a freshman at IUP and is looking to change my major to business management and exercise science!
