Dear Mom,

First off I want to apologize for not doing anything elaborate for you this morning for mother's day. You deserve so much and I can never thank you enough for all you have done for me.

 Also, your birthday is Tuesday so I'm going to make a combination post of why you're so great.

 1. You're My Best Friend. I've said this time and time again but it is consistently true. I can talk to you about everything and anything. You're also the one person I can never get sick of. Thank you for letting me ramble and always listening, even when I'm sure you didn't want to. When I go to college I'm going to miss watching "Bring It!" on Friday nights (DD4L!), sitting on the back porch drinking coffee on Saturday mornings, and so much more. 

2. You Stay in Sketchy Motels With Me. From the Quality Inn and Red Roof Inn in Columbia for Trizou, to all of the random hotels for college visits. These trips were some of the best times. Even though we did get lost driving to every single college visit. We jammed to all of Taylor Swift's albums and even some One Direction.

3. You Ran a Race With Me. I've been competing in triathlons for the past 4 years and the entire time you've been my cheerleader (which I greatly appreciate). However, this past Thanksgiving you ran your first 5k with dad and I, and I could not be more proud of you. 
4. You Helped Me Get Ready for Every School Dance. Junior year you easily spent 2 hours trying to straighten my crazy-long hair. I apologize for making you do that.

5. You're So Strong in Your Faith. You inspire me each and every day with your dedication to your faith. I only hope that I can have such a great love for God as you do. 

Finally, you're such a loving person. You love your kids at work and do so much to make sure that they are learning and growing to their highest/best potential. You love our family unconditionally. You also put our family in front of any of your own priorities and have scarified so much for us. I love you so much mom, and there's so much more I could say about why I love you. 
Thank you for everything. 

Love,
Taylor xx
