My mom is special because she is fun. She always has my back. She’s also very helpful and she will love me forever. She is so nice and kind and don’t forget smart. Her style is very cool. I also love her too, but she loves me more. She is also my world, my beautiful world that is. She will also go to the moon and back just for me because she loves me a lot, a lot, a lot.
