Day 81 ~ My Mom

My mom is the greatest! I admire her so much for so many reason and she is one of the strongest and most compassionate people I know. Over the years my mom has become one of my very best friends and I hope to be half the woman she is someday. I have been writing poetry for years, since I was a child. I wrote something for my mother in college and I never shared it with her and thought I would post it so others could see what a wonderful woman she was and learn a little of her story. Unfortunately, after hours of searching for this poem, I came up empty and realized it must be in one of the boxes in the garage. What I did come across was something I wrote for my mom in Elementary school. It has different words but the same meaning.

My Mom is the Best

My mom is the best because she doesn't have a heartache when my cat breaks her plants. Also because when my dog threw up, she didn't make me clean it up. When I got sick and threw up on her she didn't get mad at me. She doesn't always make me do the dishes. I love my mom very much. She always cares for me and loves me.

I wrote that some time in Elementary school and after all these years I can still say, My mom is the best.

My new thing for the day is recognizing one of the most important people in my life and letting her know that 35 years later, I still think she is the best.

Day 80 ~ Jewelry

I am so excited about my new thing for the day. I went and got new jewlery, for about next to nothing. I literally got each piece for 1 to 2 dollars on clearance and I love them. They are funky and fun and make me feel a little less out dated. They are different than anything I own but I like that, it makes it a little more fun to wear.
My new thing for the day is my new costume jewlery, and I love it!
