Narrative Essay About My Mother

Improved Essays
My story does not begin like many others, it may be because I do not remember most of my childhood, or it may be because I don’t believe my story starts the day I was born. My story begun in 2014 but before we get into that I will give a little back story of my life. I was born at Botsford Hospital in Farmington Hills Michigan on October 1, 1997. Just like everyone else I have mother and father whose names are Angela and Aaron. As I said before I do not remember most of my childhood its somewhat feels like a story someone told me whenever I think of it. I remember small details like the layouts of the houses I lived in or toys I had. If I am being honest it is probably because of all the trauma I suffered as a child, but we will get into that later. It’s hard to really decide on where to start since I can never remember when events happened in my life, like what came first so let me tell you about my Mom. Where do I start? My mom the most caring and loving person you will ever meet. No matter who you are or what you have done she can somehow always find the good in a person and bring it out of them. She has always been there for me when no one else was, she has always made me feel warm and happy even in the darkest of times. I could not ask for a better mother because even with everything I have been through she still gives me the strength to keep moving and make something of my life. My father on the other hand hasn’t always been the most amazing parent. My mom tells me

    Mom was small, a slight 110 pounds but through my eyes, she was large, even after my height surpassed hers. To this day, she would argue that she weighed only 100. Her strong presence claimed her space, and anyone else's that she cared to. Being right was of utmost importance to her, and she made sure always to have the last word. Overbearing, and overprotective of me, her only child, she usually controlled every situation, regardless of how trivial.…

    Losing someone so close to you can internally and externally break you. One day you could be having a normal conversation with that one person talking about something exciting that happened in your day and the next day, they are gone. I can relate to this to a tee because I have gone through this with my mom. In my freshman year of high school, she got really sick and had a seizure in her sleep. I was the one that had found her and I was the one that called the ambulance.…

    I interviewed my seventy-five year old grandpa Donnie, researched the Voyles lineage book that my grandma Arlene helped compile, and talked with my dad in order to find out more about my family’s history. According to Grandpa Donnie, it all began in 1759 when Jacob Voils, his wife, and his four sons landed in Port Charleston from Wales. Jacob was a poor man and could not afford the family’s way to Charleston. Desperate, he made a deal with the ship’s captain to indenture his oldest son William Voils as a crew hand for four years in exchange for the family’s way. Upon regaining his freedom, William furiously changed the spelling of his last name to Voyles to break all ties from his father Jacob.…

    I hate Christmas because nothing is phenomenal. I am not being facetious. I assume that Santa was busy and remiss when he forgot to give me a Christmas gift. Every time I saw other children play with their new toys by looking through the translucent window, I consternated about Christmas, and felt disconsolate. It is a paradox that a rich country should be so many poor people.…

    After the fight that Jeannette’s mom and dad had. The mom got up with the kids and applied for a job at the Battle Mountain Intermediate School and was hired on the spot because she had a teaching degree. Her mother hated teaching because her own mother was a teacher and pushed her into getting a degree in that so she would have a job to fall back on if her plans on being an artist failed. She was so angry that her mother might’ve been right all along. The only thing that really unsettled me was when she was trying to Miss Beatty that she was capable of disciplining her students.…

    When I first learned of this assignment my first thought was to interview my mom. She is the one person in my life I am closest to. Since we are only twenty three years apart, I thought it would be best to focus on her life up to the point where she decided to have kids. Though I knew most of what she told me it was still nice to just sit and talk about her life experiences. My mother was born to older parents and was the youngest of three children.…
