Modern Day Heroes

My mother, Vicki, is my modern day heroine. First of all, if it weren't for her, I wouldn't be here. She has told me about her life growing up, and I realize how lucky I am to have what I do. She has done many things that she may not had wanted to do, but she did them anyway. My mom usually puts others before herself. With many stories of her years growing up, she is the one who got me interested on sports. I have truly learned the meaning of hard work and discipline because of my mother. She taught me to treat people with respect. I wouldn't be the person I am if it weren't for my heroine.
