The young mum shared a photo of herself fully dressed in her graduation gown and hat, hugging her son with tears streaming down her face, as she writes:

"Dear Karter, For all those nights you had to fall asleep in the library, for all those times you had to watch cartoons alone because I needed to do homework, for the early mornings in daycare because I needed to be in class to being the last one there because I had to work, most importantly for the moments of separation because I needed to get this done, Thank you. You are the motivation for my heart to keep beating. I love you more than words can say. I finished because you needed to see me do it. I'm not strong because I want to be, I'm strong because I'm your first example. We've seen a lot and overcame a lot more. To infinity and beyond, a mother's greatest love."

With the number of heartless acts being handed down to kids by their parents in recent times, touching gestures such as this will always be noted and remembered.
