“We have no hesitation to share these words, especially if they give hope for doubting parents. Your meetings have changed the support we can give her which in turn has created a happier home.
Her words still bring tears to our eyes every time we read it.”
To my parents,
I don’t say it enough but,
Thank you.
For every late night,
Every early morning
Every sacrifice you thought I didn’t notice.
For the times you went without so I could have enough
For every ‘I’m fine’ you said when I know you was tired.
You taught me what it means to give without expecting anything back.
How love is shown in a thousand quiet ways
The hardest days worked
The dreams you set aside
The love you gave unconditionally.
Growing up I thought you were unbreakable
that you had all the answers but now I see
you were just doing your best
Just trying to make it all work.
I carry the pieces of you in me.
The lessons, the kindness, the strength you showed everyday.
So, even if I don’t say it often.
Thankyou for being my first home my safest place,
and for loving me in ways I’m still trying to understand.
