My Mother In My Life

My mom has been through a lot with me she got me healthy even if she was sick during the time I was a baby, She has helped me with my reading and writing disability and has pushed me to do my best. She is a strong confident woman that is loving she loves to attend to people and has a great smile. She has shown me that even if times are hard you have to bring your head up and raise it high. I maybe a mama’s boy but my mom is one of my greatest role models and people I admire.

Mum was a light in my life as I am sure she was a light in all of yours. She would give anyone the shirt off her back and go out of her way to help a friend in need. I remember one time when I was little Mum got a phone call late at night from a friend who lived on the other side of the Street. She had fought with her husband and was really upset. Mum dressed us and went out in her nightgown with us to go console her because Dad was working that night. She would always be there for her friends and family.

From working several jobs at a time to make sure I had everything I needed, she became the reason why I was raised the way I raised. The lesson that “ I should treat everyone like the most important person in the world because I will never know when I might need them” was engraved in my head was owned by my mother. Sometimes she would tell me that she had holes in her socks and I knew it was due to most of her money going towards my private school tuition in order for me to be able to have the best education I could get. My mother is my background, my identity, interest, and talent. She is truly the one that has set me up for success, regardless of how fatigued or overworked she is. She is the person who truly defines who I am and who I have become to this

Growing up my mom was the only parent in my household, so naturally we were a very close family. My mom took care of all of us. She always made sure my siblings and I had everything we needed in order to be successful. She cooked, clean, worked, etc., she really was a super mom. Whenever I had a problem with something or needed to talk to someone she was always there for me. My mom gave

Growing up, my mom was a big impact on my life. Two days of the week she was a dental assistant. The other days she was just my mom. When she came home on the days after work she would smell minty and fresh from working in her dental office. I feel blessed to have been able to have my mother as a constant influence in my life. She showed me that I could be as mother as well as have a good job; I did not need to pick one or the other. My mother taught me how to stand up for myself and how not to be a pushover. One of the most important things I think that my mother taught me was how to be compassionate. Even as a young child when I heard about some of the terrible things that had happened in the world, my heart broke for those

Early on in my childhood, my mother would read me my favorite books. Among those were, Where The Wild Things Are, A Bad Case Of Stripes, Clifford The Big Red Dog, and the classic series of Dr. Seuss books. Those are some of the best memories I have with my mom. While she has had a big influence with my reading and writing, she has also pushed me in several other aspects of my life such as basketball, developing a good character, and growing as a person. My mother is the most important and most influential person in my life and everyday is a testament how great of a role model she is.

I lived with my grandmother for the first half of my life. She practically raised me. Everyone in our village would talk about how much she spoiled me. She would go out of her way to get what I needed. One day I was playing with my friends, there was food in the house but I just wanted to eat snacks. I complained and whined about it until I got what I wanted she made my uncle go all the way into the city to buy me some snacks even though I could’ve just eaten what was in the house. She was a part of me. We had so much in common. My mom wasn't unable to raise me because she was living in America.

My earliest memories are of my best friend, my mother, reading with her, drawing with her, sleeping on her, and cooking with her. She used to read The Cat in the Hat everyday to me- so much that she memorized it. When I got older, it became The Magic Treehouse, and then Harry Potter. She had an eternal patience, and even when I made her reread a book twenty times without letting her progress past page twenty, she would oblige. She was my sole entertainer, and she took the job seriously. My mother was the one that taught me Tamil, the language that my family spoke in India. She opened the doors of religion and culture by explaining the basis of Hinduism, what each god metaphorically stood for, and spoke to me as if I were her friend, not her child. Being the inquisitive child I was, I frequently asked questions, and amazingly enough, my mother answered all of them without giving me a senseless answer

Besides being compassionate my mother is thoughtful. She stays at work late if someone needs help with theirs. She brings my grandmother dinner and runs errands for her. She is always putting others before herself. For instance, last year I began singing in the choir at Iowa State. It was really important to me because singing has always been a passion of mine. She drove to Ames for every single concert. It meant a lot to me to have her in the audience supporting me. This year I also started singing in the choir at my church. I was really excited and nervous about singing the first Sunday so few days before I was going to sing she gave me a beautiful necklace with a star pendant on it. I remember her warm hug and her telling me good luck and that I was ‘her star’. It touched me that she took time out of her busy schedule to encourage and support things that she knew were important to me. She could have just wished me well and enjoyed her few minutes of spare time, but instead she put me first.

I was born on September 7, 2002 at Licking Memorial Hospital. My measurements were seven pounds, fourteen ounces. So all I know is that my birth mom didn’t have enough money to take care of me at the time. That’s when my grandparents came into the picture. My grandparents took care of me from the time I was 2 weeks old to now.

Almost everyone's role model is their mother, but all but for several different reasons. Many find their mother's compassion to be appealing. Others their mother's strength to be inspiring. Although mine encompasses those characteristics mentioned above, she’s much more than that. Much more than a kind, compassionate, strong, and helpful person; she’s all that - and more.With my mother’s stories I have grown to know her flaws; both physical and emotional. Born in a town I admire her originality, wit, and worldview. But what I admire the most is her ability to not be as pessimistic as I tend to be, but to be realistic. I aspire to be her solely because of her wholehearted intention to seize the day, every day. For this reason, I would love

The memory of my mother will follow me wherever I go, and however far living my dreams with a gentle scent of her perfume and the shimmering of her laugh. She was there to show me how much she cared and She was there when I made my first steps. She taught me to smile and laugh.

On August 2, 2017 I went to meet my Grandma at the Bloomington Airport. I was so scared to go on the plane,because I had never flown before. So we got into the airport and went through bag check.That was the time my mom could not be with me any more.I gave her one last big hug.The hug was like a great big bear hug.I had tears in my eyes.I was just ready to start bursting into tears.When we got on the plane I looked at the seat then sat down.The chair gave me quite the relief.I rubbed my hand against the arm chair I felt the smooth cool feeling.I looked out the window thinking I will not be in IL. for a week.Which seemed like a month! The plane finally took off with a loud roar. About 20 minutes into the fight my mom sent a message.It said that she walked back to the car and started to cry. That about made me cry right there on the spot.

She taught me important lessons and one of them was how to be an independent female. she told me if I wanted to be successful, college will lead you the right path that you need to be at. Whenever she told me stuff like this, it would help and encourages me a lot. I have never been in any hard situation in my life and that’s because my mom is always by my side. Whether she’s away from me or not, distance will never separate us no matter what. she is my inspiration and he keeps me motivated to get my degree heart Surgeon, my dream job.

Life is short and people don’t spend time with their loved ones and take them for granted. People I will always be grateful for is my sister, my dog, and my mom. I love to spend time with them and never take them for granted.
