510 Words3 Pages

Imagine every person in the world having to do multiple things at one time. For example, imagine having to work on homework, but also help your friend with something important. Sounds rough, right? That's what moms have to do. Everyday when kids go home, their moms do multiple things for them including cooking, helping with homework and interacting. They do all of these things without ever complaining. Kids complain about having to do chores every day, but their moms probably do twice to three times the amount of work. This is true about my mom. My mom always helps me and I am thankful for that. This is why for my hero paper, I have chosen her as my personal Michigan hero. One reason why my mom is my personal Michigan hero is because when I'm having trouble with things, she helps me every time which I appreciate a lot. For example, once when I was really puzzled on a worksheet …show more content…

For example, once when me and my sister were getting hungry, my mom, even though she was grading papers, still stopped her work to give me and my sister dinner. I know how hard she works every day, but it surprises me that she doesn't want to wait till she's finished with her work. I am very thankful for this because if she didn't take time out of her work to make dinner, I would have to make it and I really wouldn't want to cook. My final reason my mom is my personal Michigan hero is that she knows a lot of things to help me and that is really important for me, especially to help me with homework. For example, sometimes when I don't understand a question, most of the time she knows the answer. It's crazy sometimes the things that she knows saying that she's a German teacher. I'm glad she knows all these things because it is extremely helpful for me on homework. I am very thankful for this because it gets me better grades on
