You are more than a mother,
You are more than just another,

You are my best friend.
From day one,you’ve been by my side,

And you’ve always told me to never hide.
You said you’d always be there,

and you’d always care.
You told me you’d love me forever,

And not a day goes by where I don’t hear those 3 little words,
I Love You.

And I want you to know that this much is true,
Even though I’m not a little kid anymore

I love you.

My mother and I
Have fun together

My mother and I
Help each other

My mother and I
Go places together

My mother and I
Love each other

A family gives you unconditional love,
Strength and guidance they got form above
They listen when you need and ear
And one thing is they always care
When you need a hand
They’ll lend you theirs
If you’re crying they’ll wipe you tears
If you need comfort, you know where to go
Their love is never hidden it is always shown
They always boast about you to anyone they meet
Family, friends and even strangers on the street
A family is a precious and kind
A family is truly divine
A family is God’s gift to everyone
They are what make your house your home
To be appreciated you don’t have to go far
Because your family loves you for who you are

Family to me has many meanings
For all are full of diverse feelings
Love and anger, both within a single one
Children who stay and children who run
Can one family be better than another?
It all depends on how they love each other
A family’s love should last forever
Bonds of love nothing can sever
For the family I have, I am happy and blessed
And nothing more truthful have I ever confessed
Family has many meanings, but one rises above
The greatest meaning of family, is that of love

My family will forever be in my heart,
My sister’s mean more to me,
More than life,
All I ever wanted was a complete family,
To have a mother whom I never met,
My family will always remain who they are in my heart and soul,
My family is more important than my friends and my lover,
Family will always come first,
Family is family,
No matter what they did they’ll always remain family.

What makes me who i am.
every thing makes me well me.
this world.
you.
every one makes me me.
the way i look.
the way i do things.
the main thing that makes me me
is that we are all different.
and cause of that.
i am me

Sorry mom and dad, for doing wrong instead of right.
Sorry mom and dad that I had gotten into all those fight.
Sorry mom and dad, for lying instead of the truth.
Sorry mom and dad, for being really rude.
Sorry mom and dad, for getting bad grades.
Sorry mom and dad, for serving all those detention days.
Sorry mom and dad, for seeing me home for the suspension days.
Sorry mom and dad, for talking back.
Sorry mom and dad, I just wish I could take it ALL back!
