Letter Project - Day Three - Letter to your Parents

Mom and Dad, What do you say to your mom and dad? Thank you? Good job? That seems silly, but now that I am older I realize how thankful I am to have parents like you. You showed me what good parenting is, how to be a good wife and mom, and the picture of the perfect husdand and father. You taught me the importance of saving money, but that there is also importance in spending a little every now and then. You disciplined me when I needed it. You hugged me and wiped tears. You put up with teenager mood swings. You showed me how important it is to be a hard worker, give your best and have a good attitude about it no matter what. You taught me the value of a church family and fellowship and insisted that I was there every Sunday morning whether prom had been the night before or we had been in Knoxville until two in the morning. You lead me to my Savior and I could then not only call you mom and dad, but brother and sister. You showed me the great importance of Tennessee football. haha. You put up with my love for animals whether it be a dog, a cat, a bunny, a hampster, or a fish. You got up in the middle of the night to kill a snake. Dad, you watched Legends of the Fall with us 100 times, and Mom, you have put up with King of the Hill for a long time now. You are putting me through college which I could never thank you enough for. It is beyond comforting to know that I will not have to worry about loans. You gave me a lifetime of memories, and continue to. I like to think that I turned out pretty good, but I know that who I am today is a direct result of you. I love you more than anything.
