10 Reasons Why My Mom Is My Best Friend

Because Why Wouldn't She

My mom is the strongest and most hard working person that I know. She is a wife, she is a daughter, she is a friend, and most importantly she is a mom. My mom is the most kind hearted person that I have ever met, but when I was little and I would get in trouble she can be the most scariest person that I have ever met.

1.She Is Always There To Pick Me Up When I Fall Down

Growing up my mom would always be the first person I would run to whenever something is wrong. If I got hurt outside in the backyard, I would run and cry to my mom. If someone said something mean to me at school I would tell my mom.

1. She Is Always There For Me

No matter what time or what day it is, she is always there when I need her. I can call her in the middle of the night and she will answer and is always there to listen. She gives me advice, and she gives me her wisdom. From laughing on the couch with her, to me crying on her shoulder. She will always be there with open arms.

2. She Is Always Honest.

My mom always said the only person who can be honest with you is your mom. My mom always gives it to me straight, she doesn't sugar coat anything. If I want an honest opinion about something she gives it to me. My mom is my personal fashion police when it comes to clothes, and makeup.

3. Everyone Loves Her.

My mom is the type of person that everyone loves being around. Her smile, and her sweetness is contagious, that everyone falls in love with her.

4. She Is My Inspiration.

My mother is my idol, that sounds so cliche but it's true. My mother worked all the time, she cleaned the house, she did our laundry, she cooked, and she still had time to spend time with her children. She is the definition of a godly woman and a mother. I hope to be just like her when I'm older.

5. Her Cooking Is Amazing!

No food can ever beat my mom's food. She is truly a chef, even if she didn't go to culinary school. This woman can make anything, and she will cook food for anyone. The happiness on her face when she is cooking for people, is truly one of the greatest things.

6. She's My Number 1 Fan.

This woman has been to every game, recital, performance, and sporting event. She is always in the stands or in the crowd shouting my name. She is my number one supporter, and she is my number one coach.

8. Her Unconditional Love

Whether I did something wrong, or that I got in trouble, she would still love me. There is nothing that I could do that would make her love me any less.

9. She Makes Me Happy

Whenever I am sad, or I'm just having a bad day I call my mom. Just hearing her voice, makes me feel calm, and makes me feel like I'm at home. The older I get the more closer I get to my mom, I talk to my mom more than twice a day, and that may sound crazy but I always miss her.

10. She Wants What Is Best For Me

My mother sacrificed so much in life, to make sure my siblings and I had a great childhood. My mom still to this day sacrifices her life, and I'm nearly 200 miles away from her. She will never stop caring, worrying, praying, or loving me.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

St. Thomas Aquinas College

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:
