On Mother’s Day, Thank your Mother

There is simply no way we can ever really thank mother for all she has done for us. She is the one who will be awake all night when we are sick. Praying to God to make us well and be ever ready to bear the pain that we may be experiencing. She is the one to wake up early in the morning to make the nicest snack and endure all our tantrums. Mothers are the ones who would forever complain that we are not eating enough or not eating right. They would cook all sorts of things so that we’ll be strong and healthy. In fact, mothers worry more for our examinations than we do. They would take pains to complete our school projects leaving all other works behind while we play around with friends or just away watching movies.

For all you are doing for us, thank you mom from the bottom of our hearts.

And Grandma’s Too…

While we honor all our mothers
with words of love and praise.
While we tell about their goodness
and their kind and loving ways.
We should also think of Grandma,
she’s a mother too, you see…
For she mothered my dear mother
as my mother mothers me.
