My parents could not be more wonderful. Both have worked my entire existence to ensure that I had everything that I needed and most of what I wanted. We have taken fabulous vacations together but my most favorite memories are from the simple things in life.
My beautiful mother is a cashier at wal-mart. I’m not sure how she does it. My feet hurt when I stand up for an hour and she stands on hers for 8 hours 5 days a week (at least!). She deals with some of the worst attitudes and people do not treat cashiers with respect. She is far underpaid for all of her efforts. She is an extremely giving person. No matter what the holiday she wants to pick out something wonderful for everyone and never thinks about herself.
My dad is my super hero. He works for Hawker Beechcraft, it’s an aircraft company that makes and maintains private plans. He is one of their parts department managers. He has to travel a lot for work. He doesn’t always enjoy it but he does it for us. We have moved several times over the past 8 years because of his job. I know that he hates having to leave his friends and family and he hates doing that to us too but he knows that it is what will be best in the end. He is a great listener. I can talk to him about anything and he always listens and tries to help. I am very much a daddy’s girl.
My parents are far away now and I miss them everyday. I hope that we'll all be neighbors someday! :)
That last sentence was like a poem, it rhymed! This post was so sweet. I almost cried. :)
