Dear Mom,

I know things are hard for you right now, so I am writing to tell you about how much you mean to me. Despite going through a ton of things, you still find a way to be the best you can be. You put everything aside to raise 6 kids. You always put me, Elle, and Pax first. Even if it doesn’t fit your budget, you take us on remarkable adventures to some of the coolest places I’ve ever been. One of my favorite explorations was the time you took us to Lake Powel. It was the most memorable trip I’ve ever been on. I remember the amazing stars and when we rented the ski boat. When we were out on the lake, it made me feel so small in comparison to the huge, red rocks. My favorite memory from the lake was when me, Elle, and you climbed up the huge rocks to go cliff jumping. Elle was so scared just to do the tiny jump, and you were right by her side comforting her. We finally made the jump, Elle wanted to do the big one. It took her 20 minutes of you convincing her she wouldn’t die until

You are my Hero!

Ry
