When I was a sophomore in high school I had a major surgery on my back and was out of school for two months. The thing that helped me the most through this time was my mother. When I missed school she was my tutor and helped me keep up with all my assignments. She even did the simple things like brushing my hair that I could not do for myself. Not only is she amazing because of the things that she did for me but because of how kind and loving she is. She was and is always patient with me even when I'm not always the same to her. My mom is also one of the most selfless people I know and gave so much of her time to help me. Not only does she do so much for me and my family but for pretty much anyone. She is always willing to serve and gave others her time.
This experience I learned so much from my mom through her example and became even more grateful for her. I want to grow up to be just as loving, patient, and kinds as she is.
You should have mentioned that you're Iron Man now!! That's pretty cool. Moms are the best. I had one of the worst cases of mono the doctors office had ever seen when I got it a couple years ago, and my mom definitely was the key to my survival in that sort of similar situation.
ReplyDeleteI like the detail you give of how she helped you brush your hair. I think she definitely sounds like someone who should be admired; I would love to see even more specific examples.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you had to have back surgery, ouch, that sounds like it would hurt! In fifth grade, I got sick with a fever and had so much TLC (tender loving care) that I was sad to go back to school. I felt like I became more immature like I was maturing backwards, because I felt more attached, like when I was little. Luckily I grew out of it in a few days or so, I don't think it was healthy for my development.
