My best friends mom is the strongest woman I have ever known
She has raised 3 children with virtually no help, as well as getting
a college education, and working one or two jobs to provide.
On 4 seperate occasions she opened her home to young teens
that needed a place to stay. Even when she really didn't have
the room.
Nora has always been there for her kids, and so many others
she has become my second mom, and a woman that I truely look up to,
as well as the most ambitious woman I have ever known.
And no matter how hard life is, or becomes, she always finds a
way to get through. She is the greatest inspiration in my life.
I can honestly say that the times I spent there were the happiest
I have ever had. Even more than the ones spent with my biological
family..
I love you daddo...

Very Touching
Daddo would LOVE to see this poem..its great and very true. I think she needs to see it so that she knows just how much [at least SOME of] her "kids" really look up to her and appriciate everything she has fought for in life. Thanks for writin it Krouton..it even means alot to me.
