There are five people that have a lot to do with the
decisions I made in my life, my Mother, father, Big Mam, Grandma, and Ms. Ann.
My mother was the person that taught me how to love and become a nurturing
mother. She was there for me in every way of my life as I developed into a
dependable woman/mother. My mother’s unconditional love made me feel as though
I could do anything, and I will always love her for that.
My father taught me the business part of growing up, such
how to maintain a bank account etc. He made me feel grown and independent. Both
of my grandmothers, Big Mam and Grandma contribute the woman I am today. Big
Mam was a preschool teacher, and I wanted to follow in her footsteps; Grandma
was a strong, stern woman that did not play, and I developed the same
personality.
Ms. Ann was an own of the day care center my children
attended. She was a successful business woman, yet nice and professional to her
families and employees. Seeing that was my dream to become a day care owner, I
was very impressed. Therefore, she was one of my inspirations for seeking a
child care degree.
