Mothers Day

Happy Mothers Day

Happy mothers day mum! I know this isn’t much but I

hope it’s enough. I just wanted to write this letter to you so that you could read it when you’re feeling low, or in times when you forget how much love and support you have. I want to thank you mum for helping me become the young girl I am today; I know that I would not gotten to where I am now without your support and life lessons.

I know sometime we have our fall outs,but we always overcome those hiccups. At times I know that I can be a hassle, a bit ho ha’a and act like a spoilt brat but you always seem to love me no matter what. Mum, I want you to know that through the dramas that have happened within the family lately, the love the family have for you will never change. The family know that we are so lucky to have such a caring mum like you, though at times it does seem a bit tough, but we couldn’t ask for anyone better.

I wouldn’t want to ask for anyone else. You are my mum, my confidant, the one I go to when I am in times of trouble, when I just need a hug and when I need some wise advice. I love how we have our little talks about nearly everything, and sometimes it does feel that only we understand each other. Another year passes, so does another mothers day, but my love and gratefulness unto you, never will. I appreciate you as my mother and how lost I would be if you were not my backbone.

From the comforts of your home cooking, to your yelling in the house, no one can do what you do, and therefore you are irreplaceable in my eyes. Mum you have kept our family together through the roughest patches we could imagine, and you are still here, keeping strong. I look up to you mum, you are the strongest women I know.

Mum, you are a prestigious women and you have a very resilient husband by your side, who loves you above and beyond the love all us kids imagine. Remember that you are a part of a pair, so when you feel tired or beaten down; he is there to pick up the pieces. You are a strong women, we all know that, but you don’t always have to be, that is why you have the wonderful husband you have. I love you mummy, and don’t forget that. Ofa Lahi Atu

This was a competition and I won for the senior syndicate. I read this letter at our Mothers day mass.
