My Awesome Australian: Online exhibition

Tracey by Heide (8-11 years, VIC)

Tracey
My mum Tracey is someone i can trust and will be there when i need her the most. She can always find a way to make me laugh with her personality. One of Traceys talents is being the best mum to her children, as she spends most time watching them play sport. She always does her best job working at the police station. Just recently she won an award for her dedication. Tracey is an extremely dedicated mum who is very thoughtful. If i had to give an award to her it would be the most loving person.
