Mom's the word

Our moms work really hard for us for nothing. Just a small thank you can make a difference.

I woke up at 10 am. I saw her still in the kitchen with her hair messed up and face all sweaty. Without thinking, I just told her to make my milk, breakfast etc. while I went and sat on the couch and waited. This was a routine every vacation. That day I felt an unusual twinge. I asked her,” Aren`t you fed up? 365 days a year doing the same thing, don’t you need a vacation?”.  She just laughed off my questions and continued with her work. The whole day I had that uneasy feeling. In the night when we were just about to switch off the lights and sleep I blurted out “THANK YOU MUMMY” and bit my lip. She smiled and said, “child, that`s enough for me”. The next morning I woke up at 10 am and saw pretty much the same scene except that my mum had a smile on her face.

You are right. Mothers need appreciation, even if it's only a thank you.
