To my sweet Mama

Dear Mama,

This tribute is very difficult for me to write. There's no way that a few sentences can describe the gratitude, and love that I feel toward you. I feel that you have often made the difficult choice, rather than the easy one. When it has come to character, or diet, or interactions with others, I feel like you've expected the best out of me.

I never truly understood (and probably won't until my daughter is older), what a painful (yet enriching) experience being a mother can be. I love you Mama! Thank you for being who you are, and helping me become who I am!
