Parenting is often a thankless job, but thats especially true when youre a single parent and doing it on your own, without the support of a partner.

Thats what makes The Scene video above so sweet to watch. In the clip, a single mom listens to her daughter read a letter of gratitude.

Thank you for shouldering not only your burdens, but ours as well, the daughter says. It definitely wasnt easy, especially since Michael and I were difficult growing up. With me fighting you tooth and nail about everything and Michaels developmental disorders, I dont know how you did it.

I did it out of love, the mother says.

Grab a tissue and watch the incredibly touching video in its entirety above.
