My young mom is my hero. She started from scratch. My father did not treat us right and left. She raised me alone since I was 2. No one else in the family helped us. We came to the USA but did not know enough to make a living. She prayed, continuously learned, worked very hard, never lost focus and was able to pay for child care and food. She is always concerned about my needs before hers. I went through three surgeries and she was always there. Till this date she takes me to the doctor and I have never seen her frustrated. She is a role model, very soft but courageous. She is extremely beautiful; she was a model. She knew a modeling career would not pay her consistently and she would not have enough time to raise me right so she accepted a state job, built up her credit, bought a new house and gave it to me as a Christmas gift. She cried so hard when we finally had our home and knew no one could throw us out anymore. She has given me the values of good karma, hard work & honest pay, never quit, be responsible, continuous faith, persistence and patience. She is very strong and denied to marry her boyfriend who asked her to leave me. She is the most responsible young woman I know. She is the best mother on this planet and my true hero.
