Heard a Bump on the Term Paper

However, even in these moments she makes time for me, and she always has a smile for me when she sees me.

Despite all of the responsibilities of her job she still takes the time to worry about me. When she has a rare day off from work she spends that time with me. We go out to eat, we have fun and just relax, and she is always asking me about my grades and about every other aspect of my life. It seems as if even when she is at work she always has a tab on me, whether it is a short phone call when I get home, or a voice message telling me to do my homework.

Then we have the chance to catch up, she tells me stories of her work, and I tell her everything that is going on, from relationships to friends to fights that have occurred in school. We laugh and talk and enjoy each other's company. She never gripes and even in these instances she always wears a smile on her face. The love she feels for me radiates from her face and twinkles in her eyes. She is like the mother hen as she looks over her chicklets, always worried and busy, but nurturing and loving at the same time. My mom is truly admirable for what she does, and my hope is that one day I will be able to repay the tender and loving….....
