    Most of us have someone in our lives that we look up to…….

    Who do you look up to and why?

    My mum……I have the utmost respect and admiration for my mother…..she brought up 4 of us kids on her own with no financial or emotional help from our dad’s…..she’s a very proud woman and I’ve known her to work 3 jobs just to give us a decent enuf upbringing, she’s always taught us gud morals, gud values and respect of other ppl, no matter where they’re from, their religious beliefs or their gender…….she’s had a terrible life for one reason or another but never gave up……I am the person I am today because of her influence……she is an amazing woman who I love with all my heart.

    probably my nana
    she had a tough life being from a poor family where 2 of her brothers died when young .
    she had 4 kids and they had it hard too but were loved and looked after by her and my grandad with little money as my grandad worked in the shipyards.
    she stood by my mam when she got preg at 16 which must have been hard as it was still frowned upon in the 70’s
    my nana is always a jolly person and shes done alot for me in my life shes always been there and sometimes guided me more than my own mam.
    shes getting old now and looks after my grandad who isnt well even after she had a heart attackm he has progressive memory loss or something like that and gets worse as the months go by. she had to make the tough decision of having him go into respite once every 6 weeks for a week and it broke her heart.
    shes a very brave lady full of love and loyalty and i worship her :D
