My Mom Is A Boss

Even if I don't tell her enough.

For those of you who don't know me personally, my mom and I butt heads... A LOT! But that's okay because I don't love her any less and she doesn't love me any less. Even though we argue what seems like all the time, I have always looked up to my mom and have always understood how busy of a person she really is and I have so much respect for the things she does for my brothers and I. My mom is a total boss and here's why.

First of all, she birthed and raised my brothers and I and still deals with all the nonsense we give her. Not gonna lie, my brothers and I can be some of the worst people on the planet sometimes. Not only do we argue with each other but we argue with my mom CONSTANTLY. If I was my mother I would be so fed up. But somehow she manages to just deal with it. I try so hard not to pick fights, really I do, so I'm also sorry for starting arguments for absolutely no reason because my mom deserves better.

Second of all she works 12+ hour shifts as a nurse in the Intensive Care Unit. So she's up and on her feet for 12+ hours straight, taking care of extremely sick patients, and then has to come home and deal with the nonsense. It only took me 19 years of living on this planet to realize that I could never do what my mother does. And the thing is she does it because she loves it and she loves helping people. I could never do that; not because I'm not hardworking and dedicated, but because I'll never be as hardworking and dedicated as she is. She deals with so many different walks off life; people can be rude and demanding but she deals with it because she still wants to help them.

There are SO MANY things I could say about my mom but that is way too many. All in all my mom deals with too much sometimes and that's not cool. I try not to argue with her because she shouldn't have to deal with that AT ALL. She works too hard all day to come home and get stressed out for no reason because I want to be a little witch. I love my mom and it took me this long to realize that she deserves the world because all she ever does is care for people; my family and her patients. I love you Mom even if I don't say it all the time.

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.
