Dear Mom,

I don't often say this but I am grateful.

I am grateful that you worked hard, so I could appreciate the value of money.

I am grateful for my brother, so I could understand the importance of sharing.

I am grateful for that dad could moan about mowing the lawns, as it meant we had lovely grass to play on.

I am grateful for having to pay housekeeping, so I could appreciate the cost of living.

I am grateful for having to do household chores, so I could understand how difficult it is to keep a home

I am grateful for your strict rules, so I could learn morals and honour

I am grateful that you always made me write thank you notes, as it made me appreciate people's kindness.

I am grateful for your patience and as a mother, I now understand why you need it.

I am grateful for a childhood home, where everyone was welcome

I am grateful for you.

I love you.

From me x

Mother & Daughter

  2. Awww, that is so lovely. I had a framed picture made for my mum on Mother's Day this year so she could hang it and read it whenever she wanted, little memories throughout our lives where I particularly appreciated her being there for me

    Hi all! Being a mum is an experience you cannot explain how it works but rather, with love, understanding and patience you get through each challenge no matter how difficult.
