Personal Narrative: My Mother

It took me eighteen years to come to the realization that my mother influence molded me into the young woman I am today. My mother, Verlisher Jones is a forty-four-year-old hard working woman. My mom work several jobs to help raise me, my sister, and my brother. She has now been self-employed for a while now. She owns a Daycare in which she runs out of her home. Being a single mother takes a lot of courage and confidence. My mother has a great deal of influence on me and my life.
My mother is the type of woman who insisted on spending quality time family time even when no one wants to come together. My mom is one of those people who will help a friend or family members who in need of help and wouldn’t expect anything in return. She too much of a nice person, meaning no matter what that person do or does she will still help. For example, my cousin is twenty-one and doesn’t do anything with his life, but if he needed money or place to sleep my mom will

be willing to help. Just being who my mother has influenced me.
A teacher, a best friend, and a role model are what I consider my mother to be. She teaches me to have confidence in myself, to be a smart young woman, and the right from the wrong. She always there for me and always give me pieces of advice when I need it. She never fails to let me down which is why I consider her to be my best friend. I have two other siblings, a brother who is twenty years old and a sister who is twenty-three year old. She has been raising me and my sibling all alone with the help with my aunt and grandparents ever since I two year old. Her actions make her a strong and hard working woman and mother.
On top of raising three kids alone, my mother recently had to deal with her mother death. My grandmother passed away just two months before my mother birthday. It was very hard for her to lose her mother as well as her best friend. Ever since the death of my grandmother, I watch my mom struggle every day. It was hard for her to focus on her job which is why she took a whole week off from her job. I watch my mom every day in pain and wanted to just break down. But through it all, she still remains strong enough to continue to care for those she loved.
My grandmother was my mother’s role model she was the one who had an influence on my mom. Everything my grandmother taught my mother my mother taught her children. My grandmother was a great cook everyone loves her cooking especially her macaroni and cheese. My mother will always try to compete with my grandmother and her macaroni but she can never get it to look and taste likes her mother.
Macaroni and cheese are both my mother and grandmother favorite dish to make. Every time there is a family get together my mother would cook her favorite dish macaroni. She makes it just like how my grandmother would make her. She would buy a different type of cheese, there is shredded cheese, cheddar cheese, cottage cheeses, cream cheese, and any cheese you can name she would buy. Once she adds all the different ingredients the macaroni always comes out of the oven looking cheesy and delicious. There another favorite dish my mom will always cook and that is banana pudding. My mom found a secret receipt online that include different cookies. She also makes her pudding with whip cream; although it is call banana pudding my mother doesn’t use bananas. My mother is a great cook and she influences me to learn how to cook.
When it comes to disciplining my mother would rather sit and talk about it than whoop her child. Anytime I would get in trouble my mom would give me a warning just like how they do in school. It was always up to me as a child to do what was right. If my mom was the type of parent who give her child a whooping I know it would be for a good reason. Sometimes children can learn from whooping and learn from their mistakes. Disciplining your child teach your child to do the right thing.
When you have a mother like mines I’m quite sure she will have a great deal of influence on you and your life. Everything she does influence me, being a single mother, a strong and hardworking mother, being self-employed. Verlisher Jones is my mother, my teacher, my best friend, and my role model.
