Packed My Parachute

Six people that have packed my parachute in the past would have to be my mom, dad, aunt, sister, grandma, and brother, but out of all those, it's probably been my mom who's done the majority of my parachute packing. She's always been set on teaching, giving, and doing the best for me, and I have many memories to back up this statement, but I'll share one. When I was about 10 years old we had to put down my favorite dog who we had had since I was 5. My mom went against my dad's word and left that same day and didn't get back until sometime around midnight. I was like where in the world have you been? She didn't say anything just walked to the back of the car, opened the door, and picked up a fat little black lab. She handed him to me and I was laughing and crying at the same time. So I'd have to say my mom definately deserves the title as my best "parachute packer."
