My mother was and has always been there for me through thick and thin. She is a good nurturer and very caring. She always put her children first, even before herself. She rasied all of her children to have good values, love God, and to never settle for less.
My two aunts were there for me when my mom was either at work or other engagements. Neither one of them had children, so my siblings and I have always been treated as their children. On the weekends I would always talk my mom into allowing me to spend the night over one or the other aunts house. They always remembered us on Christmas and our birthdays.
My home economics teacher treated everybody in the class the same. She was a caring person and went out of her way to cheer me up if I came to class sad. During a special school ceremony, my mother couldn't afford to buy me a dress, so my teacher took me down to one of the local stores and purchased one for me. I always thought of her as a God Sent.
Mr. Agresta was my fifth grade teacher, whom I enjoyed going to his class each day. He taught me how to make a camera out of a oatmeal box, in which we then took actual pictures. When I got to highschool, he remembered me and was able to get me a job in his office.
The only person who still influences me to this day, is my mother. My mother has and always is there for me. She encourages me to; try until I succeed, be patient, honest, and stay focused on God, and all things will work out for me. I love my mother and will literally do anything in the world for her. She is my motivation to strive to do better. As much as she's capable of doing; she has always tried to provide me with a better life than she experienced.
This is a picture of my mother, from our cruise this past summer.
My two aunts are both deceesed and I no longer have contact with them.
