Mama,

I love you, and again thank you for all the help you HAVE been able to give us, time and time again, throughout the years.

And even though I may not (or it may not have seemed like I) have appreciated a lot of things at the times they happened, or even afterwards for a long time, I have definitely counted my blessings time and time again regarding the caring person I call “mom.”  I thank God that I got to grow up without having to deal with some of the stuff I’ve seen others having to go through.  I’m forever grateful that you made it easy to always know that I was loved, no matter what stupid shit I managed to get myself into.  Know that I in the time I’ve been living on my own, I have been able to learn and understand how difficult things can be for adults (and how little we really know/understand as children).

Thank you for always being there, wherever "there" was, always willing to reach down and help me up, even at the lowest of times.  I never wondered if you’d ever stop loving me, even after I’d done things which made me not even like myself.  You are the best, I wouldn’t trade for any other.
