To my dearest momma,

I know I am a day late but that shouldn’t matter. I shouldn’t have to be extra thankful for you on a specific day. You should know that I love you and am so thankful for you no matter what the day is. I know sometimes you feel that I am not appreciative of you and that is a shame on me. Without you I wouldn’t be where I am today, I wouldn’t be the woman am today.

To my dearest momma,

There are no words that can describe how much I love and care for you. You do so much for me. You go out of your way to do some pretty amazing things for me. For example, my birthday this year was absolutely amazing. I loved going with you to see RENT on its 20th Anniversary Tour. The whole day with you was very much needed. I had a fantastic time and I thank you so much for that time I got to spend with you.

To my dearest momma,

I want to say thank you for always sticking by me. I know you have to because you are my mom but I am still very thankful for you. I get myself into some pretty dumb stuff and you always stick by me. I put myself in relationships that are bad for me and you are there to help me through them when things start going south.

To my dearest momma,

Thank you for always supporting me when I take on new projects. Thank you for supporting me at every high school musical, every choir concert, every theatre production in college, every awards ceremony. Thank you for being so involved in everything I do, even when I get frustrated.

To my dearest momma,

Sometimes I think you are the only one that could ever put up with my impossible self. Kudos to you for that! Thank you for being the best and most nosey mom anyone could ever ask for. And uh, congrats for making such an amazingly awesome kid like me.

I love you with all my heart no matter what I might say.

Love,
