This is one little attempt of mine to convey you a big lump full of thanks for everything, everything you have bestowed upon me since I have been. Right from the time when I was a tiny tot to today, when I am mature and grown up. Having you as my mother was one of the best things that could happen to me. It is you who has molded a childish, puerile being to a mature and independent human .

Mum, do you remember the time when you first dropped me to school? It was you who was more anxious than me. Every now and then I used to get a new frock and a pair of shoes but saw you wearing the same pair for months. In fact, I thought that it was your favorite design that made you buy a similar kind of shoe every time.

Do you remember the time when I used to be irrevocably sick for several consecutive months? I do, because it is impossible for me to forget those sleepless worried nights of yours.

Thanks mother for getting up early every day to prepare my Tiffin and sending me to school .

I always wondered why everyone else’s mother enjoyed going to kitty parties but I always saw you at home or at office toiling away in some work or the other. To be honest, I hated you for being so unsociable. I was a nincompoop. Didn’t realize that the sacrifices that you had been making just to see us happy cuddling with our teddy bears is way to hard to define and much beyond those materialistic penance.

Thanks for killing your time and interests to make me study and pursue my interests.

Thanks mother for believing in me every time I ventured into some or other novelty.

There have been many times when I have shouted at you for things and people that do not even have an iota of importance in my life today. Even at those instances you always made sure that I eat and then go to bed.

I still remember the time when I scored 0 out of 20 in my math exam and the kind of scolding I got later. I was really upset but trust me the kind of recoil that I made in my academics was the result of your admonishing.

There are so many things. So many, that I feel like relating to you but never got a chance to. In fact even right now it is formidable for me to remember it all for there is so much I want to churn out from my heart but I guess the words are not enough to define the immortal love that you have showered on me all these years- magnanimous and self less.

And since Mother’s Day is the perfect time to celebrate the joys of having an awesome mother like you and also the time for making amends for not being able to spend any quality time with you, therefore lastly I would thank you for all the love and care you have shown to me .

I wanted to write this really badly to let you know that I love you a lot and no matter how far away we live presently, I always think of you for you will always be embedded deep down in my heart.

Happy Mother’s Day Mum!

Love

Your Daughter
