My Hero :)

My ultimate hero is my mother, hands down.  After experiencing a traumatic divorce in her home, my mother felt it was best to move out and take responsibility for herself.  She left home at the ripe age of seventeen, ready to make the best best of her life, reguardless of any challenge.  Successfully, she finished high school and went on to pursue higher levels of education.  Unfortunately, my father passed away when I was only a year old, leaving my mother to be a single parent with her two young children.  Reguardless of our situation, my mother never made my brother and I feel different than other children from two parent homes.  She showed us to never feel sorry for ourselves or to even make excuses.  Although my brother and I came from a single-parent household, we never went without or hurt for anything.  I'm proud of my mother and all she has achieved in her life.  After putting her children first for nearly twenty-three years now, I'm to happy to see her go back to school to complete her Master's program. You go mom! :)
