My mother who is still something of heroine to me is like no other woman that I know. Though God has given me many women in my life that have put an imprint on me for motherhood. She gave me something that is unique that only a mother can give which is most of herself. It is quite amazing how God orchestrates your life and places you with one that will nurture you and teach you things that she would not take credit for. My mother was a single mother raising two children working a full time job including some weekends with children in toe. Some of my fondest memories as a child were being with my mother at her work. The word to describe her is Strong. Which brings me to, a dictionary definition in which people chose 5 adjectives to describe MOM.
"Earlier this week, we asked our readers what words best describe their mothers. We noticed a prominent theme in the terms, which spoke of moms most "tenacious," "resilient," "indestructible," and "unyielding" in character. One submission effectively encapsulates this theme: strong. This versatile adjective entered English over a thousand years ago as a descriptor of physical power and muscular force. Shortly thereafter, it took on a meaning of great moral power or courage. Since then, senses and applications for this term have multiplied, giving us variations such as “powerful in influence or authority” and “able to resist strain, force, wear, etc.” Sound like anyone you know?"
