My mother is unlike any woman in the world. I know every daughter says that, but seriously if you met my mother you would realize there is no other mother like her. I have never met a person who is more loving, strong, and would do anything, and I mean anything, in the world for her daughters. All my life I’ve had an extremely close bond with my mother, she’s my best friend and my favorite person in the world. I was attached to my mom’s hip when I was little and not much has changed. Even though I’m away at college, I still need to hear her voice everyday and I need to come home every weekend to see her. She is my best friend and I can’t even tell you how lucky I am to be her daughter.

Dear Mom,

First off, let me tell you I love you…even though I tell you maybe 20 times a minute it doesn’t even compare to how much you really mean to me. You do everything for me and drop anything to come to my rescue to make sure I’m okay and happy. You always say that I am your life and I can’t express how much I appreciate you for that. I haven’t met any other mother who lives for her child like you do. You’re the most unselfish person I know. I know that I’m not the easiest daughter to have and we may fight sometimes, even though I will never win cause I hate to admit it but you are always right. I’m very dramatic and many times I’ve called you crying on the phone and I know you worry constantly and I must drive you crazy.

Thank you for being there for me, I’m very tough to handle at times and you somehow find a way to make the hard times easier. Thank you for being so understanding of what I do in life, between the number of tattoos I get, to my boy problems. I’m incredibly grateful to be able to tell you everything and anything, even if you don’t want to hear it. I know you say that one day I’m going to grow up and get married and leave you one day, but that will never ever happen. You know I want to live near you all my life and I expect you to live up to your promise of you coming to sleep in-between my husband and I on our wedding night haha. I want to be with you all the time and that’ll never change, ever. I promise you that.

You are my best friend and the funniest person I know. You don’t even know how excited I am to turn 21, so I can ditch all my friends and go party with you. You know how to have a good time, plus you’re the best dancer I know! I wish I could write down everything I love about you but honestly, I would never stop writing because I love you that much and more.

I believe that my purpose in this world was to be your daughter and you were always destined to be my mother. Oh god, I can’t even finish this damn letter without crying… thanks, mom. I think you are the most smartest, beautiful, and loving person on the planet. I know sometimes you get frustrated and wish you could do more in life, but you have done so much between raising my sister and me, and guiding us through life. I would not be the person I am today if it wasn’t for you. I cannot thank you enough. I wish I could write more, but honestly no matter how much I write it’ll never express how much you mean to me.

You’re my best friend, my protector, my personal stylist, my therapist and the most incredible mother in the world. I love you more than anything and I am so honored to be your daughter. I’m so lucky that you were chosen to be my mother; it was the best thing that has ever happened to my life. Out of everything that will happen to me in my life, the best thing is the fact that I was chosen to be your daughter and that will never change. I love you so much mommy, I will always be your little Pookyface.

Love,

Your Daughter
