Mother's Day

Hey I know this is a little late, but I thought I might post this anyway. I had a good idea to show my mom how much she meant to me seeing as my gifts were not finished or here on Mother's Day. So, here we go.

To Mom:

I love you Mom because I have...

A triangle nose and squinty eyes when I smile.
Wonky toes and wide feet.
Gigagungous teeth that don't fit my mouth.
A strong jaw bone.
A love for languages.
The determination to reach my goals.
Self confidence.
The knowledge of what's right and what's wrong.
Sweet dreams when I need them.
A song in my heart.
and a love for all living things.

All of this and more I have because of you. You may not know that you gave some of these to me, but you did. I like who I am because you taught me that my opinion is the only one that really matters. Thanks for being there when I needed you and thanks for being my mom. Though according to Buddhism I chose you. I'm glad I did.
