Here is Jasmine’s award-winning poem, “The Best Mom Ever,” and essay, “My Magnificent Mom”:
“The Best Mom Ever”
My mom’s the best you could have
She helps me each and every day
She cooks me food and buys me toys
The park is where she takes me to play
She’s there when I need her
Cheering me when I’m sad
Then she uses her magic charms
To make me feel glad
Helping me grow more and more
What else can you ask for?
“My Magnificent Mom”
A wonderful mother is always there for you. That’s my mom through and through. She cheers me up when I’m sad or frustrated. Mom’s constantly doing her job, caring for me and letting me have fun too. She makes vacation arrangements for the family, giving us amazing memories. She plays games with my sister and I. Hey; she’s just my magnificent mom.
