The person I аdmire is my mother. She is the most important person in my life. I can't live without her. Mum does a lot for our family. She always manages to do everything: to idy our flat, cook delicious meals and find time to talk to me. Mum supports me every time I need. She is a kind person, although she can be strict. Mum is also thoughtful and attentive, caring and fair. She is my best friend. Even if I do something wrong, mum never shouts at me. If have a problem, I always tell her about it because I know she can give me good advice. When mum is not around, I ask myself: what would she do in this situation? I think my mother is also wise.
