The person I choose to dedicate my wonderful Puente Portfolio to, is my beautiful Mom. The reason why I chose to dedicate this to my Mom, is beacuse she has been such an important impact in my life. She has given birth and raised me into an amazing young woman. She has been there ever since I first came into the world, took my first steps, got my first boo-boo, loose my first crush, and witness my first word, which was "onion." My mother has taught me what unconditional love really is. She inspires me to always work hard, she pushes me to become the best version of myself. Every morning and every night she kisses me goodnight. My mom works tireless to provide for our family, she wakes up in the morning around six, uses the bus to go to work which takes about two hours, gets home at about seven-thirty, comes home tired and hungry, and once the clock hits nine, she stays up late to take care of my nephew, Aiden. For my mom to stay strong during all this time and through the points in life when we would have nothing, has taught me that all that is needed in life, is to love, be loved and happiness. I want to thank my mom for everything she has done for me ever since I was a young one, I love her with all my heart, with out her I would not be here today.
