Grateful Because

I’m truly blessed with my mother. She’s in a category by herself. She’s not a woman, not a human; she’s a mother. Well no, not just any mother, she’s my mother.

When it comes to love and dedication for your children, my mother is my example.

Living on the other side of the ocean we none the less find time to chat almost on a daily basis: the Internet has made ours a small, cozy world.

It’s so natural for me to have my mother. And it’s not. I lost my father 9 years ago. Could happen anytime to me, to my mother. Around me I know those who have lost their mother and whether it was early on or late in their lives, it was always too soon.

So I guess I can count two blessings: that I have such a fine, sweet, special mother — and that I have her.
