A Strong Mother I know it might sound generic but the only person I can imagine writing an essay on is my mother, Wendy Mayor.

However, even though she was put through these trials she never gave up and kept working to make a life for herself. She continued her lifestyle until she became the age of 20; that is the time she met my father and, under an agreement rather than love, married.

To this day my mother works, though not as hard as she once did, to help my family; be it a relative that needs a place to live or my sister needing money for her family, my mother has never turned anyone away. Although she does drink now, not heavily a course, and smokes more than she should; she is still the same kind, strong woman she was when I was a
