Rockwood (519) 831-3221 www.rockwoodbusiness.ca Why my Mom is special Letters from the winners of the Acton BIA writing contest Why my Mom is the best in the World! My mom is the best in the whole world because when my dad is in the forest of B.C planting trees my mom takes me on lots of trips to take my mind off of him. When my dad is still in Ontario my mom takes me to visit him. My mom helps me when Im hurt because when I fell on te driveway and scraped my knee she put a band-aid on my cut and I felt better. When I am down she gives me treats to cheer me up like stickers or crayons maybe some bubble gum or candy if Im lucky! Also when Im frustrated she explains things to me I dont understand. When there is no one to play with my mom plays with me and we have lots of fun before we can play I have to do my home work. When its to hard she helps me. In the summer time I have swimming lessons. My mom pays for my lessons and I like that. But the best thing of all is she loves me! Tahira Age 8 Why my Mom is the best in the World! I think my mom is the best in the world because she raised me as a child when my mom had alcohol problems. Also I think my mom is the best because she puts me in activities like soccer, hockey, lacrosse, swim team, swim lessons and Brownies I love when my mom does that. My mom is the best in the world because she volunteers with school trips, like the butter fly musuem or when she came in our class for ginger bread houses. My mom is also the best in the world because she does chores around the house like dishes or laundry. She also lets me watch T.V. at night and lets me stay up late, also lets people sleepover. My mom is also the best because she takes me places like Florida, Disney, sports world and Canadas Won- derland. She helps me with home work. She helps me when Im hart like when I fell off my bike or when I fell off the monkey bars the first day of kinder garden and had to get stiches. I love my mom! Taylor, Age 8 My Mom is the best because she built a swing for me. Brandon Senior Kindergarten Class, Robert Little Public School My Mom is the best because she is my best friend.
