An Open Letter To My Mom

No matter what we go through, and no matter how much we argue I know in the end, she will always be there for me.

An Open Letter To My Mom
Jessica Handy

A mother's love is the type of love you can't receive from anyone else. It's a special kind of love. It's a love that has no limits. A mother pushes you to be the best person you can be. Mom, this one is for you.

Dear Mom,

I don't tell you enough how much I appreciate you. You do so much for me and even when I don't voice I appreciate it all, just know I do. Also, just know that I love you. I love you so much. I know I might not act like it all the time, but I do. You are my rock. When things are rough, you're always there. When I want to rant (which is all the time) you just sit and listen and then usually give me advice about how I need to handle the situation. You might think I don't take your advice to heart, but I do. If I didn't have you I honestly have no idea what I would do. You keep me sane I swear. I know I make life hard on you sometimes and I apologize. We have been through some rough trials, let me tell you. Truthfully though I wouldn't take anything that has happened back because all that has happened has brought us closer together. I am sorry for the times I've let you down though. You don't deserve to be let down, but you do deserve the world. You're the strongest person I know. You have been through it all and still manage to keep it together. You have sacrificed so much for me and it means more than anything to me. I am so blessed to have you as my mother. I love you so much. You are my entire world, whether you know it or not. Thank you for sticking by my side, always.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed. You feel like you will have never-ending classwork to catch up on if you miss class, so you end up going sick and then it just takes longer to get better. Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
