A Tribute to Mom
Mom has been there for me all through my 17 years. She was there when I lost my first baby tooth, when I got my first A+, and when I got my drivers permit. Even though it has been hard and difficult to make me understand Algebra 2 at times, she has always been there with encouragement and love. When I did not feel well or I was sick, she would comfort me and try to make me feel better.
Not only has she helped me in my day-to-day life but she has also been there to give me biblical training for my spiritual walk with Christ.

Whether it was a word of encouragement, a scripture reference or a cold wash cloth to cool me down when I had a fever and did not feel well, Mom has always loved me and has shown it through her daily words and actions. So I just want to say right now—though I am sure she knows it, “Thanks, Mom! I love you.”
