Happy Mother’s Day From Alex

In celebration of Mother's Day on Sunday May 13, we asked Patch readers to write a letter to their mother and let us deliver it. This is Alex's letter to her mom:

My name is Alex, and I live with my mommy in Eagleville. While I can write my name, I cannot write a letter just yet, so I asked someone else to write this letter for me.

My mom is the best mom in the whole world! She was pregnant with me while still in college, worked as a waitress on the side and graduated from Penn State just one day before I was born on Mother’s Day 2014!

My mom is beautiful, smart and funny. She works very hard to make ends meet, but always finds time to do fun things with me. She takes me to the playground, we go hiking and we’ve traveled to Colorado to see my grandparents. She even took me to Hawaii where we saw a giant turtle!

My mom gives me hugs and kisses, warmth and caring. I love her with all my heart.

—Alex
