These Mother’s Day letters were written by eighth-grade students at the Ben Franklin School in the Uniontown Area School District. Jessica Desvarro

My mom is really special to me, and I don’t know what I would do without her. My mom and I have shared so much together. I am writing this as a personal essay, and to say that my mom is very special to me.

My mom does a lot for me to ensure that my future is great. I am the kind of person who doesn’t really need help with schoolwork. I’m really good in basically all my classes, so my mom said that now she would help me with my etiquette. When I was about 7 years old, my mom sat me down, and told me that I should learn some basics on life. She taught me proper etiquette, and she told me that I must always conduct myself in public. This is something I remember even to this day.

My mom and I also share a lot of fun and crazy memories together. I have a mom that is hard-working all the time. She does so many things in one day, that she is as busy as a bee, but even at that my mom still knows how to have fun. We’ll go shopping together, go to see musicals and shows, or at times we’ll just sit at home and watch movies together. To me my mom is the sun in my sky, she always makes my happy, and lighting up my day.

So, I am writing this as a personal essay, and to show how much my mom means to me.

Robert McFadden

My mother is a very special person to me. I am telling you how my mother is special to me. My mother has always been there for me. Anything I need she gets it for me. The one who would never let me down would be my mother.

My mother has always been there for me. Every time I have a problem she is somewhere around. When I need help with something she will. If I don’t know how to do something then she will help me the best she could. Also, when I’m in danger like a little kid drowning in water she is like my lifeguard and saves me.

Anything I really need my mom would get me it. She would get me a pair of shoes if I needed them. If I needed a part for the quad if it breaks to keep it running. She always does it as soon as she finds out something is broke. It’s like she has money only for us kids stashed somewhere in a savings bank to us.

My mother has never let me down. If I broke up with my girlfriend she was there. When I lost my best friend in an accident she was always there. Even when I got hit by a car going 74 miles per hour, she wouldn’t leave the hospital room ’till I did.

Carene Rhodes

My grandma Evans is very special to me. My grandma is always there for me. She knows what I like. Finally, we have fun times when we are with each other.

My grandma is always there for me. She always calls me when I’m sick just to see how I am doing. Also, she visits me on my birthday every year because we have a good relationship. Finally, she encourages me to never give up on a dream and always do the best I can.

My grandma knows what I like. She sees the clothes that I wear and she buys them when they are on sale. Even though she doesn’t like some of the music I listen to, my grandma still gives me money to buy CDs. When I am coming for a visit, my grandma gets movies that I enjoy so we can stay up so late that the sun is a bright smiley face telling us that it is a new day.

Dallas Tiesort

The person that is special to me is my mom. My mom works hard at her job. My mom makes sure I don’t make bad decisions. She helps me with my schoolwork when I need help. My mom cares for me a lot. That’s about my mom who is special to me.

I will write about my setting. We go to J.R.’s to have fun. We play pool and buy drinks. We talk to other people at J.R.’s and make friends. My mom makes sure we have fun. I like it when we go to J.R.’s to hang out. The people there are nice and funny. It’s always cool there.

I will tell you why my mom is special to me. My mom has been there for me for a long time. She let’s me hang out with my friends. She’s just as nice as any other mom. My mom is the cool like a morning star. I like it when she makes me happy. My mother takes our family to do things. That’s why my mom is so special to me. My mom is the greatest person I’ll ever meet in the world.

The most special person in my life is my mom. I am writing so you know who is special to me. She takes care of me. I can tell her anything. She is a good influence to me and people around her.

My mom is the most person who is special to me. She is like a nurse always caring for me. She buys me things I need such as school supplies, clothes, food, and more. My mother also helps me with my stuff such as schoolwork or personal choices.

I can also talk to my Mom about anything. I can tell her if I have problem in school or with my work or with somebody. I could take her just for the fun of it.

Katie Peary

Some girls have fights and don’t like their moms but to me my mom is my very special friend. Anytime I need any help with anything she is always there. We spend a lot of time together and go to the mall and have fun.

Whenever we have a conversation or when she goes to an event she talks and treats me like an adult. I can tell my mom anything because I can trust her and she can trust me. We are like two best friends who love to hang out.

Anytime I need help she is always there for me. When I first hurt my knee and had to go to the hospital she took me the next day. Then when I fell off my horse my mom walked 10 miles with me through the woods to get to safety. Everyday she would ask me if I need any help with school because if I did she would hire a tutor. Almost everyday I go through a boy crisis and my mom helps me through them. My mom is the Oprah of my life. I wish my mom had a show of her own. She would put Dr. Phil out of business because of her great advice.

She is a critical care nurse and is very tired after she works but she always spends time with me. My mom is the best ever. She truly is my guardian angel. Whenever I need a friend she is always there. No matter what is going on she still has quality time for me. The bond between a mother and a daughter is sacred. That is why I will love her forever.

My mother and I are very close to one another. We hang out such as going to the mall. We also spend a lot of time together. I think we are so much alike because we always see each other. I love my mom, I am just like her.

My mom also makes sure I have everything I need when I need it. She goes to work everyday and still makes time for her family. She also makes sure I have all my homework done for school. And when I’m sick my mom gets everything I need for me to get better quickly. All together she is great!

Kevin Diamond

I hope you have a best friend/mom just like me.

Someone who is very special to me is my mom. I am writing to explain why she is special to me. She takes very good care of me. If I’m in any trouble, she will always be there for me. She keeps me in line like no loafing around, and she also makes sure all of my homework is done before playing around.

My mom always feeds me keeping me strong healthy so I’m never starved. She also takes good care of me to the doctor checkups and always takes me to a hospital if I’m injured. My mother also worries about me. Like if I forget my homework or my lunch, she brings it to me. She’s like a battery that keeps going and going.

My mom makes sure I’m always on time for a meet even if she has to cancel something of hers that really isn’t important to her. She takes time out of her day just to come and watch me. My mom never makes me feel discouraged at a meet and is always there cheering me on.

My mother is always there for me through everything. She is always nice just like an angel. My mother is kind to whomever she meets. No one could ever say she was unkind to them. She is also very honest just as Abraham Lincoln was.

She is a very caring woman. The most caring person ever. She always makes you feel better when you are down. She is a very loving person.

Nick Leone

Someone special that sticks our in my mind is my mother. Her caring attitude makes me feel good. My mom brings me happiness when I am sad. Also she makes dinner for my family.

Her caring attitude makes me feel better When I am in a bad mood she always has something funny to say to make me laugh, like “Your face is as red as a ripe apple.” I fall when I am blading so she gives me band aids to fix me up. She works and so does my dad so we can buy things we need. If I ever need help with my homework she always helps me so I get a good grade.

My mom makes me happy when I am sad or in a bad mood. She always has a smile on her face.

Mario Piccolomini

My mother helps me in many ways. She helps me remember things that I might forget. I can also depend on her to assist me with many things. If I am upset she can put me in a better mood. My mom will aid me in getting through something if I want to get up.

A way she shows love is by trying to keep me out of trouble. She also worries about me if something happens to me or I get hurt. I can depend on her to feed me and make sure I’m fed. My mom shows she is loving by doing the most she can for me.

She will do anything for me to make me happy. She is a good mother. She takes good care of me. My mother cleans the house. She gives me money when I need it.

She takes me where I need to go. She is like a superwoman getting me to basketball. My mom takes me to school every morning. If I am hungry, she takes me to grab a bite to eat. When I want to buy shoes my mom takes me there.

Whenever I do something wrong my mom points it out to me so that I don’t make the same mistake. My mom is as fast as lightning when helping me correct what I do wrong.

Angelina Piccolomini

My mom is without a doubt my best friend. I am writing this story to tell everyone just how special my mom really is to me. Without her I would be lost. My mom is very kind and loving. She takes care of all my wants and needs. I know that I can count on her for anything and everything.

Lovingness and kindness are my two favorite qualities about my mom. She is always there for me if I ever need anything. When I am sad she make me happy. And I do the same for her. When I’ve had a rainy day, she always makes the sun come out.

My mom takes care of all my wants and needs. She is my doctor when I’m sick, my chauffeur when I need a ride, and my chef when I am hungry. If I want something she’ll usually get it for me, as long as it won’t hurt me or get me in trouble of course. And for the record I don’t just love her because she’ll do anything I want or need, it’s just, if someone will do that for you, they have to have love for you. And when I am around my mom I definitely feel loved.

I know that I can count on her for anything and everything. Everything I just told you about my mom is completely true. I love my mom because she is kind and loving. She takes real good care of me, and I know she always will.

David Wrona

My mom takes care of me when I do not feel good. When I feel ill she makes me chicken noodle soup. She gives me medicine if I have a headache or stomach pains. If I am too sick to go to school she lets me sleep like a dog. When I have a stomach-ache my mom will put a garbage can by my side so I don’t have to get up. She makes sure that when I am sick that I get better faster.

If I need help with my school work my mom is always helpful. She always buys me the supplies I need, such as note books or pencils. If I have a project to work on she helps me with it. When ever I have after school programs, my mom helps me prepare for them. When I don’t understand class assignments I ask for her help. She also helps me with my homework.

When I do extracurricular activities my mom is always there to support me. During basketball season she takes me to my games and cheers for me. When I play baseball she is my biggest fan. As I run cross-country she is the strength in my legs, pushing me forward. My mom is very special to me and I am very lucky to have her in my life.

Rebecca Keefer

Do you have someone special to you? I do and that’s my Grandma Aggie. Here are my reasons why she is that person even when her hands are swollen she taught me how to sew. She made me laugh when she was in the hospital, even though I was scared. She is a very helpful person.

She would teach me how to do things even when her hands were as big as softballs. My grandmother taught me how to sew things like blankets and skirts. Also how to cook pasta and bread. She taught me how to plant a garden and how to make a hanging angle. The most important thing she taught me was how to be a good person. She always told me “Do good things to people and they will do good things to you.”

When she was in the hospital she would make me laugh even though I was scared. Every day I would walk into her room and she would tell me a new joke. My grandmother is a very helpful person. If I needed help with something she would help me. She helps me fix things like chairs and tables. If someone needs pants fixed she would do it for no money.

Amber Branch

The person who is special to me is my mom because she has accomplished a lot of things in her life. My mom always takes care of me. She is the best person in my life because she inspires me. Family is important to her, and we always come first.

My mom always takes care of me. Things that I want she is willing to get for me. She and I always find some time to go shopping. My mom always makes sure I have something to eat by time I come home from school. She is as sweet as candy maybe even sweeter. She takes me places I need to go or I want to go.

My mom inspires me so much to do the things she does or the way she acts. One thing she did was go back to school to be a nurse. Through tough times she would say, “Everything will be all right.” I wanted to be a nurse when I was little and when I found out my mom was going to be one I was happy. Also she went to get her drivers license which is a really good thing. Every time she walks down the street, the sun can’t help but smile at her.

Family always comes first to her. If somebody needed her to do something for them, she would tell them to wait until she’s done helping her family.

Jessika Daugherty

My mom is so special to me I am writing this to tell you that my mom is such a special person in my life. She cares for me and she also sticks up for me. When I need to get through tough times, my mom helps me.

My mom gets me what I need. She is the best. Because she does things or ens for me. And she’s is always by my side, when I need something or something like that. When me and Sara, fight my mom sticks up for me. And she also lets me go to the mall with my friends. My mom helps me out in many different ways. All in all my mom is a very special person in my life She is my shining star.

Jon Jones

My mother is most special to me, more than anyone else. I’m writing to explain why this is so. Kindness is my favorite trait she possesses. She’s completely considerate of others. Intelligence is also one of her high points.

Kindness is her most dominant trait. She’s as gentle as the mother robin, carefully caressing her babies. Looking out for others before herself is another way she is so kind. Also, her words are more comforting than a kitten, playing with your hand, or a puppy, jumping to greet you. Those are a few points of her kindness.

She is very considerate of others. Her words are as well timed as they are comforting. Before acting, she thinks of the long term impacts. Consideration for others is another bright spot in her personality.

Intelligence is also one of her high points. When solving a problem, she uses all of her brain, a full concentration. She knows when she needs to make her tone hostile, as well as gentle. Speaking her mind, she doesn’t fear being judged, or shy away from critism.

Brittany Voytek

My mom and I do everything together. When I need her help on homework or a project she always helps me with it. She is more than a mother she is like my best friend. Any questions I ask her, she always has an answer to. We shop together. We ride rides at amusement parks together. Most of all I trust her with my life.

We share our secrets with each other. When something happens at school or anywhere else I know she is the first to tell. If someone tells me something and it’s not important I tell my mom. She knows everything about me, but not only because she’s my mom. She tells her secrets too. I love her forever and always.

Every time I’m upset about something she makes me feel a lot better. Every time I fight with a friend she helps me get through it. When I get a bad test grade she tells me to bring it up and she works with me to get better at it. When my brother and I fight she tells us to work it out and it’ll be OK. Everyone needs a best friend in life and mine is my mom.

Jimmy Logan

Someone that is so incredible to me is my mom. She is amazing in so many different ways. She is responsible, caring, and supportive to her family in many different ways. Here are some examples on how she is.

If she saw a human or even an animal on the street, she would give them something to eat if they were hungry or something to drink if they were thirsty. She is just so concederate like that. Also, if someone is poorer than dirt, my mom would give them some money. Here are some other reasons why my mom is so special to me. All in all, my mother is responsible, caring and supportive in many other ways. That is why I picked my mother to write about. She is very special to me.
