What Does It Mean To Be A Hero

Some people believe that a hero should be strong, brave, and smart. Others believe that a hero should be someone who gives back to the community. I believe that my mom fits the criteria for a hero because she is a moral person who is exceptional at her obligations. I admire my mom because of her caring nature for my sister and me, her hard work ethic, and her outgoing and friendly personality. My mom cares for my sister and me by cooking and serving dinner, enforcing house rules, and doing the bulk of laundry. On a usual day Mom would go to either Langenstein’s or Costco to buy dinner for the night, or she would have food in the fridge that she could prepare for us. I am grateful that she cooks meals for us instead of frozen meals and fast food. Also my mom enforces the house rules to look out for our well being like a curfew. As a night person I find the curfew to be challenging at times, but I know she just wants me to have ample rest. While my mom and sister take on most of the burden for indoor chores, I cut the grass and trim the hedges in our yard. My mom usually put the clothes in the washer and drier, but she forces us to do the folding.
She works a full-time job in the fixed-income market trading bonds to investors and companies. Month by month she preserves through the uncertain world of the financial market on her commission salary. She puts extreme effort into the job because she needs to call around the offices to find clients that want to invest, show bonds that they may be interested to invest into, and finalize a trade in the main office in Milwaukee. But still I believe that her being able to handle both a full-time job and kids best showed her hard work
