My mom is the most spectacular<br />
mom ever for various reasons. I love<br />
her.<br />

My mom’s name is Kimberly,<br />
and she is the best mom. I am sure<br />
there are a lot of great moms out<br />
there who love their kids, but my<br />
mom works really hard, especially<br />
with my schedule. She gets up every<br />
day at 4 a.m., because she works<br />
in Tampa, and has a babysitter stay<br />
with my brother and me to get us to<br />
school. She leaves for work so early<br />
so that she can leave Tampa at 2<br />
p.m. to pick me up for early release<br />
from school at 3 p.m. I am on a competition<br />
gymnastics team and train<br />
five days a week, four hours per<br />
day. My mom picks me up and takes<br />
me to practice and then has to pick<br />
up my brother and take him to his<br />
practices and then come back and<br />
pick me up.<br />
She stays up late preparing lunch<br />
and dinner for the next day since we<br />
don’t have a lot of time after school.<br />
She also helps me with my homework<br />
to make sure I get A’s in school.<br />
She doesn’t get a lot of sleep, but she<br />
sleeps a lot on the weekends. She<br />
also takes really good care of our<br />
cat and dog. We don’t have a lot of<br />
time during the week, but after she<br />
rests on the weekend, she tries to do<br />
something really fun with me.<br />

My mom is the best, because she<br />
supports me in everything I do and<br />
pushes me to do my best and help<br />
others. My mom helps my family<br />
with all our needs and others’ needs.<br />
She influences my life to be a light in<br />
others’ dark times.<br />
My mom makes sure that my siblings<br />
and I do our best in school. She<br />
makes sure that we get a lot of work<br />
done, but also have breaks so we<br />
can rest our brains. Because Mom<br />
is a teacher, she goes to a teaching<br />
event every year so she can be<br />
an even better teacher. It helps us,<br />

her children, that she goes to these<br />
events, because then she can help us<br />
more with our work and put beauty<br />
into our writing. Mom is a big help<br />
with our education, and it pays off<br />
for her when she sees the good<br />
grades we get.<br />
My mom is not just a teacher, she is<br />
a peace-maker and a love-spreader.<br />
She has helped the world so much<br />
by helping with our family’s nonprofit<br />
#HangAHeart. #HangAHeart<br />
is an organization in which kids<br />
and adults show love by sewing felt<br />
hearts for those who are experiencing<br />
dark times. Without my mom,<br />
there would be no #HangAHeart.<br />
I am truly blessed to have such a<br />
loving mother who inspires me every<br />
day to be just as hardworking and<br />
kind as she is.<br />

My mother is my forever best<br />
friend. She gave me life, nurtures<br />
me, fights for me and, most importantly,<br />
loves me unconditionally. She<br />
taught me how to walk and talk. She<br />
shapes me into the very best version<br />
of myself. My mom is more than just<br />
a definition from dictionary.com. My<br />
mom has the hardest job of all, but<br />
somehow she manages to keep up.<br />
My mom is there when I need a<br />
shoulder to cry on, and she puts everyone’s<br />
needs before her own. My<br />
mother pushes me to do my best in<br />
everything I do, no matter what it<br />
is. No matter how bad her day has<br />
been, she is there for me. She never<br />
complains or says no. I can count<br />
on her to always stand by my side.<br />
I cannot imagine what my life would<br />
be like without her. I am so lucky to<br />
have a mom who loves and cares<br />
for me. Nothing can compare to the<br />
amount of love a mother has for her<br />
children. My mother is the reason I<br />
am who I am today.<br />
As Abraham Lincoln once said,<br />
“All that I am or hope to be, I owe to<br />
my mother.”<br />
