A mother's love is something that can never be beaten or replaced. Something that is beautiful and unique. It's a blessing and a gift.
My mom is a true gem and I won't say that makes my mom better than all the mothers in the world, because it's not a competition, and why compare all the gems in the world when the only gem that matters is the one you have standing right in front of you? From my parents, I'm more like my mom - I'm very forgetful and loud, just like she is. I make things a big deal just like she does and I cook just like she does.
From loving me to spanking me, everything that my mom did was out of love and there's nothing that I can do in this world to ever thank her for it. When she lost her job she didn't dwell on it, she got back on her feet in search of a job whether it was cleaning, cooking, or babysitting, she did it. One thing about my mom is that she is not a person that lets people do things for her, she is more of the independent type of person.
My mom has such a strong will and a strong spirit that it keeps her going and it keeps her fighting. I truly don't know where she gets this kind of strength, and even if I did, there's a nine out of 10 chance I still would not understand it. How is it that a lady so small can fight so big? How can a Mexican woman with all odds against her continue to rise? How can a mother so kind and loving care for three troublesome kids? I don't know the answer, but she does.
I will never be able to do the great things that you do or live and understand the hardships that you went through to get to this moment. What I do know is that you're my mom, mi bebe and that's something that will never be taken away from me. I know you'll love us, love your family even after death and because of you there is not a force in the world that can mess with our family.
Te quiero mucho mami.
