To My Mom, What Will I Do Without You?

Dear Mom,

You are my inspiration. The one who showed me what it is like to be caring person. The one who showed that when life throws you curve balls you should take them and knock them out the park with dignity. You taught me to be the compassionate, strong willed, and some would even say funny. I don't know who I'd be today without you. You are who I inspire to be. You take life by the horns and when you are at your lowest point you still somehow manage to think of others and put them first.

You are best mom anyone could ask for and even though I yell at you, get mad at you, or tell you that you are annoying me you still manage to be the one person that I could not go without. You are mom and I love you. I had to write a paper one day about why I wanted to be a nurse and the only thing I could think of (besides the fact that I love it and I love helping others) is because I wanted to be like you. A nurse who in spite of having an awful day makes their patients very happy, talks to them like they should be talked to (with respect; no matter how old), and cares for them whole hearty.

Mom you make everyone's day better and you are a very special person to me. I love you whole hearty even when I yell, get mad, or annoyed at you. I do not want you to ever doubt that. You are the one person I can always come to and say anything to and know that you will still love me especially for who I am (a strong independent woman like you taught me to be or so I hope I am). You are my best friend and not many people can say that.

I hope that when/if I ever have children they look at me the way I look at you; with pride and everlasting love. You are a true superwoman and I am super proud to be your daughter. I know that sometimes life can be hard on you but know that when the world is crumbling around you, you will always have me no matter what. I am your daughter and I am forever proud that you are my mom. I love you!

Sincerely,

A girl just trying to survive

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
