From Abbie age 14

I love my mom because she is leaving to take my 80 year old Granny to Florida for four days because she loves her. I love my mom because even though she is leaving for a week she is making sure that I have everything I need before she goes. I love my mom because she made a list to tell everyone when and where to go so we dont end up getting in trouble with our teachers because we were not at class. I love my mom because she wants me to go shopping with her tomorrow to find her some new clothes, but she will end up wanting to get me something instead because she says she does not like anything at the store. I love my mom because she laughs at me instead of getting mad and embarrassed when I yell in publix "OH MY GOSH MY ARMPITS ARE SO ITCHY". I love my mom because 99% of what she does is for me and my brothers. I love my mom because she does all of these things because she loves me. And I know she will always love me no matter how stupid I can be and how grumpy or how bad I can be or no matter what I do she will always love me.
