Me and my mom

My mom helps me with my homework,
She paints and takes care of my pets.

She cooks me dinner,
takes me on vacation -
She loves me.

My mom sings in church,
She helps me study when I have a test,
Then I understand,
She taught me to keep trying and
Never give up.

My mom made me a better person,
I now keep trying til I get it.

My mom told me to believe in myself,
She taught me to go to mass
every sunday because it's God's house.

I met my mom when I was born,
She cared for me, played with me,
took me to the park, and
watched cartoons with me.

I got to know my Mom very well.
This lady I call my mom is also my Spanish teacher
in school.

She taught me to say two important words:
"Te Amo."

Can it get any better than this?
