A Thank You Letter to my Boyfriend's Mother.

To start off, thank you. You raised that sport loving and nonstop moving kid, and you did a dang good job doing so too. I have heard of some crazy childhood stories from him, with that makes you a true saint. After saying that though, you raised such a kind, strong, and honestly emotional kid. He is a wonderful man.

He won't tell this to you to your face but he always tells me how thankful he is for what you have done for him while raising him. I want to thank you for creating my best friend. Someone I am able to share a ton of my memories with. You have definitely raised a son who respects women and knows how to take responsibility of mistakes. It truly makes sense when they tell you to watch how your boyfriend treats his mother. Knowing his endless love for his family and friends, and especially you says it all.

Thank you for always including me in family functions, and letting me make memories with your family. I truly feel lucky, especially being an only child. There really is nothing I value more than the time and memories I get with family and friends, and I am thankful you invite me to know yours.

The most important part is, I have to thank you for trusting me with your oldest son. I know he was your first baby when you decided to start a family, which is beyond special. I know he is very precious and has such a selfless heart and I make sure every day to protect that. I will do everything I possibly can to make him happy. This means more than you can imagine, that you trust me to take care of him when you aren't there, I will never break your trust.

The second most important thing for me is thanking you for accepting me for who I am. I grew up in a whole other part of the United States, therefore I never even remotely grew up the same way. You have never wished I looked or acted like another girl. You simply love and care for me and that's all I could ever ask. We are all so different and I am grateful I ended up meeting your amazing family.

Even after a year plus with your son I still am able to learn the most interesting things about him. I am thankful you have been so loving and accepting of me. I really couldn't be more thankful.

This may seem a little scrambled up but my brain gets that way when I try to even possibly put into a letter of how much you have done for me. It's all so much and even the little things are so important that you do, so I promise my scattered thoughts are all with good intentions and not meant to bombard you. I just want to get the idea across to you that you are important and special to me and everything you do does not go unnoticed. I really don't think you get enough credit for all you do for everyone. You are always on the move, and there when anyone ever needs you. You are definitely a super mom.

Sincerely,

Your Son's Girlfriend

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
