Why does she rock?

She is the one we go to when nobody else will understand. She gives us the greatest advice whenever we need it. And she has always been a phenomenal support system in all of our choices we’ve made. She has inspired us to do our best in school and achieve excellence. There isn’t one day where she doesn’t put our needs before hers. She gives her absolute all to make sure that we have everything we could ever need and want. Not only is she our mom, but she’s our best friend.

Why does she deserve the spotlight?

We feel that our mother deserves the spotlight because she has put us in the spotlight before herself for our whole lives. There isn’t anything that we wouldn’t do to make it up to her. She knows everything that we need before we will even need it. We are forever grateful to have such a loving, caring and fun mom. She is the reason that we have come this far in life; and she cooks some really good food.
