My Hero

You tucked me in, turned out the light
Kept me safe and sound at night
Little girls depend on things like that

There are thousands of people around the world list endless celebrities as their hero's.
But my hero isn't famous. Nor is she very well know at all. You wont know her. But I do. She's my mum.
This incredible woman has been my best friend, my mum and my soulmate since the day I was born.
On the days where I feel so confused and lost about what I'm doing in my life, she's there to hold my hand. At times like those, even words aren't needed.
Without so much as making a sound I know she's always there.

Brushed my teeth and combed my hair
Had to drive me everywhere
You were always there when I looked back

Mum, you made me the person who I am today.
The happiness in my heart is from the beautiful childhood you gave me
The gentleness in my actions is because you taught me to care
The understanding I know comes from your wisdom
But most importantly the beautiful rainbow I see over my shoulder is from your outlook and vision of how my life would look.

You had to do it all alone
Make a living, make a home
It must of been as hard as it could be

There's no other person in my life I trust, believe in and admire as much as this lady.
It's an amazing gift to have someone in your life who knows you better than you know your self. I've been lucky enough to have one
Unlike a lot of people my age I speak to my mother every day. Not because I feel I have to, but because I cant imagine not.

And when I couldn't sleep at night
Scared things wouldn't turn out right
You would hold my hand and sing to me

Mum I want you to know how proud I am of you. For making it through everything you have, for believing in life after everything you have endured.
Your the woman I aspire to be
And I just want you to know

I loveyou
