Happy Mother's Day, Mom!
I never realized that I'd appreciate my mom more now because I'm miles away from her. Sometimes distance brings us good. Relationships are tightened even more. And I noticed I'm closer to my mom now, than ever before. I feel I can tell her everything, share her my ups and downs and won't dare hide my sadness or mood swings from her.
The only picture I have in my wallet is my mom's, the pic was taken back when she was still working in Bayshore Hospital, New Jersey and I was still 9 years old when I had that picture of her and is still in my wallet ever since. I'll let her see it when she come visit here in June. I'm sure she'll laugh at herself, looking all different. She was still skinny too on that picture! hehe...sorry mom *BIG GRIN* That picture is a reminder that my mom, worked hard just to get us from where we are now. Her and dad argued a lot when it came to migrating in the U.S., but we did anyway because mom knew it's a better life out there. It's not really for their personal gains, but really for their children's (our) future.
Right now, she still works in the hospital, working two jobs just to get us by. Although I sometimes feel sorry for her, being all tired everyday, but I did try my best to help around the things she should have also been doing, like taking care of my younger sis and bro and doing the household chores. I carried that load for her. And it wasn't at all easy raising two lil pestering kids.. haha, kidding guys, nahhh I love Jhayme n Koi. Though they give me headaches most of the time, I managed to mostly be there when they need me.
So to my dearest mom, thank you and I love you! Can't wait to bond with you again. Mwah!
