Janel's "Thank You...Very Much" Letter:
Dear Mom,
You are the love of my life. The way you make me feel is unbelieveable, it’s just so comforting. You’re the best role model for me. You teach me about life, school, and encourage me to do anything. You tell me good from wrong. Mom, you understand me and no matter how mad you make me, you can always make me happy again. You hug me and take me on trips to a lot of places like Disneyworld, neighbor islands, the mainland, Alaska, and Las Vegas. You correct me on my bad choices or mistakes, you make me want to change and do better. Also, when you scold me I know you only do it because you want me to be a better person. You make me feel happy and I will try my best to be like you and be a good role model, a good mother, a nice person, a thoughtful citizen, and a comforting human being. You affected my life so much and now I’m willing to affect yours too. I appreciate your effort to make me happy always.
Thank You...Very Much!
Yours truly,
Janel
