To My Momma, Every Day Of The Year

My mother never gave me any idea that I couldn't do whatever I wanted to do or be whomever I wanted to be. I don't know if she ever realized that the person I most wanted to be was her.

To My Momma, Every Day Of The Year
Hunter McWilliams

"My mother never gave me any idea that I couldn't do whatever I wanted to do or be whomever I wanted to be. She filled our house with love and fun and books and music, unflagging in her efforts to give me role models from Jane Austen to Eudora Welty to Patti Smith. As she guided me through these incredible eighteen years, I don't know if she ever realized that the person I most wanted to be was her."

No gift could ever show you how much you truly mean to me, so I am giving you my words instead.. Happy Mothers Day Momma

You deserve the world and more everyday of the year not just this one in particular. You are the greatest woman this earth and I will ever know. (I may be a bit biased but I just can't help it.) You are so extraordinary and so loved, especially by me.
I have saw the world try to get you down so many times but you never let it, you turn your music up and dance away the negativity. You have carried the weight of the world on your shoulders and still yet go about your day as if you have the world in your hands. You have a way of seeing the world like no other, you find the good in everything, my optimist. You not only manage to carry your own weight but mine and my siblings as well. Every time something has brought me down, you dropped whatever you were doing and picked me up and continued to carry me until I was strong again. You are my strength, the wind beneath my wings. You taught me the important things in life and always taught me that the world owes me nothing and that I am in charge of my happiness. This lesson will change the way I live forever. You taught me how to be strong, independent, and confident yet humble. You make me feel like there is not one thing I can not do in this world as long as I work for it. I am so grateful to have a mother that is constantly boosting my confidence.

Not only are you my mother but you are my very best friend and for that I will always be so thankful. You are the Lorelai to my Rory (nothing represents us more.) I know I will never have to go through anything alone because I will always have you, my mother, my number one supporter, my best friend. I could not thank you for everything you do for me. You let me be exactly who I want to be without passing any judgment, you think I am perfect and I think the same of you. You have been my world since before I can remember and nothing will ever change that. You have taught me to never sit out but to always dance, to take all the chances I get and to make everyday an adventure. My life will always be filled with so much joy because of you. Thank you so much for all you do for me, the lessons I will carry through life, the constant love, working to give me everything I want and need, sitting by my bed for countless nights in the hospital and not leaving once, all the laughs and dance off, for making the good days great and being there to hold me through the lows. You are the most selfless person I know, you really are an angel.

I want you to know you are the best mom I could ever ask for, I would be lost without you. I love watching you dance your way through life, I am honored to be the one dancing right by your side. You are the light of my life. You are magical Momma, I love you more than you will ever know. Happy Mothers Day!

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.

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.
