Tierney Riccitelli

Every single day, I take my mother for granted. Since the day I was born, I have never cherished my mother enough. Yes, I recognize that she does all of these wonderful amazing things for me, but what do I do for her? What do any of us do for our mothers? With Mother's Day approaching, I really thought that my mom should receive the recognition she deserves for all of the amazing things she has done for me in life. After the past few months where I am sure that I drove her insane, here are 28 reasons why I love my mother.

1. She is not afraid to tell me when I am wrong.

Don't get me wrong, I think Thanksgiving is great and can't wait for it, but nothing gives me greater joy than watching Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas, lighting peppermint scented candles, decking the halls, and baking gingerbread cookies.
