If it werent for you, I wouldnt be here.
Mom,
If it werent for you, I wouldnt be here.
You are mybest friend, my anchor, my rock, number one confidant and fan.
Derek Thomson
All the while fighting your way through your own obstacles to ensure that I was provided for.
You are relentlessly compassionate and kind, with a heart of pure gold.
Always doing your best to set the perfect example for your girls.
Derek Thomson
We have always been and still are your number one and leading priority.No onemesses with your girls.
Because of you I know that life can be tough, but I am tougher.
You are the definition of how to love others beyond flaws.
Words cannot express the magnitude of just that one single lesson.
You gave me guidance to see the good in people, and if dont find it, look harder.
You werent handed over some sort of handbook or how to manual, you just knew.
Also… Imsorryit took me so long to realize what a remarkable woman you are.
The unprecedented amount of time and energy youve given is beyond belief.
My words and actions at times were unlovable, but somehow you managed tolove me anyway.
Youve supported every dream or goal Ive had, no matter how ridiculous or unattainable they may have been.
Thank you for setting the proper boundaries but trusting me enough to allow curiosity.
And when I came crashing down from a huge mistake, thank you for being there to catch me.
You were cognizant of the fact that I was young, andyouve been there too.Ive never felt alone.
