Dear mother this is really hard for me to say but I’m not ready to let you go, twenty-six years you raise me and you did the most amazing job all the laughter all the happiness all the deep cries we shared and to finally realized and see how much you glow. Going back and rewinding time remembering the day when I was just so small when you calm me down when it dark, as you hold me tight feeling your comfortable touch hearing the sound of your beating heart. Till this day I still remember when you walk into my bedroom tucking me into bed reading me bed time stories hearing your lovely voice soothing me to sleep, as you make stories an adventure and so fun making my imagination live forever these are memories that I keep. As I grow and grow, knowledge start to form in my brain learning what’s right and wrong everything I learn love, kindness, courage all the wisdom was because of you mother you taught me literally everything you know. After years and years I take this knowledge you gave me for this world is so hard but with your lovely words you told me there’s nothing to fear, as my success start to build for you make me see the world more clear. Oh mother I’m so grateful and bless to still have you in my life all these years all your patient all your struggles to make my life perfect still your love remain strong even when I’m weak or start to fall your right there to give me the strength. As time moves on and big news start to come as I tell you that I met the most beautiful woman of my dreams and you told me that you were waiting for this day, as I tell you bigger news that there’s going to be a baby ******* the way. For this important moment we connected for I wasn’t ready for this big change as you hold me in your arms when I started to cry, that you comfort me telling me that everything will be okay as you wipe my tears from my eyes. Oh mother I don’t want to leave you don’t want to let you go but now that I’m fully grown, and somehow I knew eventually this day will come that it hard to believe that I will be having a family of my own. Mother thank you for blessing heart your love your courage your strength and your wisdom as much it hurts me to say goodbye but I know one thing is that your always here in my heart and for that I’ll will never feel alone, but my family is waiting for me and soon I will know what it’s like what you have been through with me and I share your love to my baby girl as I’ll be moving to my new home.
