Thank You Mom

Thank you mom, for everything you do. I don't know what life would be without you.

Thank You Mom
Kayla Hinton

I wish I could show you how much I love you but it seems impossible because it is such an infinite amount of love. You have the hardest job out there, caring and protecting me. I am so beyond blessed for all you have done and I want to give you thanks.

Thank you for always loving me.

I have been hurt by boys. I have been to the point of feeling like there is no point anymore all because of a stupid broken heart. You mended what I once thought couldn't be fixed. You showed me what love really is and what it really can be. I thank you for showing me that, it has made me stronger and opened up my heart more than ever.

Thank you for letting me vent.

Not many people are good listeners. However mom, you are. We will be driving in the car and I am screaming at the top of my lungs because of something that has frustrated me and your responses/advice amaze me. You either will be calmly agreeing or going of the hinges along side your daughter. Thanks for letting me talk to you about my biggest problems, but the worlds smallest.

Thank you for putting me first.

You have gone through a lot. You have lived this life much longer than I and you have worked so hard in your career. For what? For me. For your kids. You are selfless, you are strong you are everything I hope to be if I ever become a mom.

Thank you for understanding my personality.

You are the only one that truly understands my mind. Perhaps it was because you literally made me or perhaps it's because you basically are super women. I think majority of people see me and think I am insane. However, you mom, you think I am the worlds most perfect human being despite my flaws. You are accepting to not only me but the world, not many people are like that, so thank you.

Thank you for being strong.

You are strong when no one expects you to be. You constantly put on a brave face and never let your kids see you breaking. You know how hard that is for a human to do? You are always the one holding and hugging me when I'm down. You put us before you and all your problems. Thank you for being strong, but just know it is okay not to be, I am here.

Thank you for supporting me.

I could want to work at fast food the rest of my life and you know what you would say? "Whatever makes you happy, I'm happy." You don't doubt or question my choices. You accept them. You back up whatever I want to do in life. I have changed my major multiple times and each time you have given support that I didn't even ask for. Thank you for never doubting my capabilities.

Thank you for being you.

Lastly, thanks for being you mom. How is it that there 7.5 billion people in this world and I got blessed with you? Whenever I am sad, happy, indecisive, under appreciated I look to you. You may not think you are the best mom but I am telling you, you are. My opinion is the only one that should matter. I just hope you know how thankful I am for everything you do and don't cry too much after reading this.

I LOVE YOU!

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.

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.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. 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.

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!
