Happy Mother's Day (2014)!



When I was picking Michelle up from after school on last Friday, she rushed and hurriedly  presented me with a beautiful decorated pink bag, a sweet tight hug and said "Happy Mother's Day, mommy!"  My heart got melted momentarily.  

The same evening, Sophie gave me a packet with her handcrafted items for Mother's Day she had been working on in her class.  She explained me in details how she put her heart to come up with her letter to me.  After reading her letter to me, I felt tears in my eyes.  My heart was touched yet felt so warm and loved.

Nothing else could make my heart warmer and more meltdown than those sweet little gestures. 
Only moms know what it takes to be a mom.  A mom is the core of the family and she's one of the essential ingredients for running a successful family. 

The other day I saw a Chinese TV program.  It was about a teenage girl who was pursuing her violin career in a big city.  It showed how her mom sacrifices herself, takes care and is fully dedicated and supports her daughter through a financial hardship and living poverty.  It best depicts a mom's love.  Being a mom myself, I know it's the same for every mom. 

Not all successful kids might not have moms but if they do then there's a very supportive and loving mom behind them.

Sadly, I don't have my mom to celebrate Mother's Day with me anymore.  Even though she's not around, she's always in my heart. As the saying goes, a mom cannot hold her children's hands forever but she'll hold their hearts forever. 

Happy Mother's Day to my mom and every single mom out there!
