mom,

i know we fight sometimes, and sometimes i struggle to properly show how much i care, but i really do love you deeply. even if i get quiet, awkward, distant, or emotional sometimes, there’s still a part of me that appreciates everything you do more than i can fully explain.

thank you for raising me, taking care of me, helping me grow, and staying strong even through difficult times. i know life isn’t always easy, and i know i’m not always easy either, but you still continue loving me anyway. i notice more than i say sometimes, even the little things.

i still remember our memories from years ago, our family moments, the old pictures, the comfort of simply being together. even when we argue or misunderstand each other, i still treasure those memories so much because they remind me that no matter what happens, you’ll always be my mom and someone incredibly important to me.

thank you for your patience, your care, your sacrifices, and for continuing to support me while i’m still learning and growing as a person. i want to become better at expressing my love and appreciation, even if it takes time.

happy mother’s day ♡
