When I was in
fifth grade, my class teacher gave us an assignment to write a
paragraph about our role models. We were going to present these
paragraphs to our parents the next day with a reception to follow.
I wrote about my favorite author at the time: Rick Riordan. He
wrote one of my favorite realistic, fantasy series about Greek
mythology. As a young, naïve fifth grader, I didnt really know
what a role model was. I
thoughtthat a
role model was someone that made you smile and laugh. Rick
Riordans book made me do that, but not him personally. I didnt
make that connection until my teacher pulled aside and explained
what a role model actually is. A role model is someone who another
person admires and tries to be like. Once she explained that to be
me, I

to be called my mother because of she has sacrificed so that I
could be the young woman I am today. Seventeen years, ago, she
brought me into this world at the age nineteen with my father. I
was amongst the group of spoiled children, at the time, who would
tantrums in Wal-Mart over a Barbie doll I couldnt have. In
beginning, as a child all I saw was happiness and fun, and while
that was true at home, my mother went to school every day before
she would drop off with my grandmother. She sacrificed her
educational career for me, for a short period of time, until she
actually had the time and energy to be able to go back to school.
She went back to school at UAB and achieved her Bachelors degree,
Masters degree, and her Ph.D. She is, currently, working on her
M.D. at USA. It wasnt until I was in seventh grade that she became
a single mother. After my father left, times became hard. We had to
give up a lot of things that could no longer afford on a single
paycheck. My mother sacrificed a lot so she could take care of me.
I cant thank her enough for her
