My Mom And I Had An Unbreakable Bond From The Day I Was Born

My mom and I had an unbreakable bond from the day I was born. For starters, her and I were alone. Me, a new born, and a 19 year-old graduate, beginning a new life. Although she was a single mother, we had an amazing amount of support from family. I grew up surrounded by three loving uncles and two magnificent grandparents. So, technically, we weren t â€Å"alone.† But in many ways, it was just her and I, which made us have a relationship many people can t say they have with their mom, and she taught me so many things throughout the years.

Although my mom was raising me on her own with a job, or sometimes two on hand, I was raised right. Financially, she made sure I always had enough of everything; clothes, food and entertainment. We lived in houses that could fit inside other houses, and in places that were only guest houses to the owners. Because of the low income life I lived before my adopted dad came along, its taught me to save. Saving is important and furthering my education is important. A college fund was never planned as I was younger, but my parents to this day assure me college will never be something I m deprived of. After my mom married, three little girls were soon to be named my little sisters. With a current five year old, two year old and one year old, budget is tight. Timing could have been better, but I know if I work hard and apply all the skills my mom learned and taught me when I was younger, I ll work and work to pay off every loan and bill I owe for furthering my education. I plan to pay back my parents for all they ve done for me as I was growing up, and giving back to my mother forShow MoreRelatedReview Of The Other Wes Moore 1038 Words   |  5 Pagesthe people closest to you and the bonds you share with them.
