I am nominating my Mom. Not only is she beautiful on the outside she is beautiful on the inside as well. She has the biggest, kindest heart. She sacrificed all of our lives to make sure my brothers and sisters (4 of us) were well taken care of all on her own. Now that my youngest brother is in college at Florida State my mom is living her dream and driving over the road as a trucker. She has been through a lot to attain her goal but she is now doing what she loves and we are so proud of her.
