The person I cherish and admire the most is none other than my God-gifted mother. Her name is Mrs. Judith Chimuanya Chikere. She is fair in complexion and of average height. She is both a trader and a housewife. She is 35 years old.

I admire her because she possesses most of the qualities we need to succeed in life. One thing that makes her unique among others is that she is caring, loving, and understanding. There is a saying that behind every successful man, there is a woman. My mother truly supports my father. She knows when my dad has money and when he doesn’t. She understands my feelings and those of my siblings. She knows when we are sick and when we are healthy.

One of her most endearing qualities is her genuineness. She has always been my source of inspiration and pillar of strength. She is endowed with great wisdom and is often called upon to speak about community problems. Everyone in my community knows her as the women’s leader.

She is a good cook and prepares meals for the family without complaint. She is truly a role model and an example to other women. She is a peacemaker who never likes to see people quarrelling.

She attended her primary and secondary education at Ambassador International School, Ifakala. She stopped schooling because of a lack of money and the sudden death of her father. Yet, she remains a woman of great wisdom and knowledge.

She supports me, gives me confidence, makes me laugh, cheers me up, and wipes my tears. She is my joy-giver, a mother as precious and lasting as a diamond. She is the most protective person I have ever met, and she has an amiable personality. She is always there for me and my siblings, like a flawless diamond shining with love and care.

Her hobbies are telling stories and watching movies. She also enjoys resolving disputes and finds joy in making peace. Her favourite sport is table tennis. She loves going to church and never likes missing service. She always advises us to take part in the things of God.

She will always be the one I admire and love the most.
