I could easily go on and on as to why I think you are special . Everything you have taught me has been by example . You aren ’ t a “ talk a good game ” type of person . You ’ ve shown why I should give back to the community because you ’ ve served on the board at the local Boys & Girls Club , the Salvation Army , and countless other organizations . You ’ ve shown why I should help those younger than me because you are an official mentor to children at your local middle / high school . You ’ ve shown me to respect my elders because now that you are retired you spend part of your days visiting local nursing homes just to make sure they have company and someone to talk to . You ’ ve shown me what it means to value sisterhood with the women that are closest to me because I see how you interact with your older sisters . And , most importantly , you ’ ve shown what it means to be the best daughter possible because I see and hear everything that you do for my grandma .
Mom , this letter does not even begin to scratch the surface to express the level of gratitude and love I have for you . You are amazing and loved beyond measure . And , I am so extremely happy that you are the one that has helped to navigate and guide me as I journey through this craziness called my life . I love you much , much , too much !
