hello, yes i am very close to my mom, and for me she is the best mom in the whole world. She raised me and fed me well, and gave me all the love that a mother could give and I am really proud of her... Now that she is old and ofcourse not anymore fitted to earn a living,(just depending on pension) I do shoulder everything she just needed on her daily needs, she is in our hometown and we seldom see each other, but I always call her and remind her how thankful I am to be her daughter. When she comes for a vacation here in where I am staying, I make her feel how special she is to me. I do her manicure and pedicure, I will personally dye her hair and personally do everything for her.( I could just hire manicurist to do it, but I prepare to do it myself, because I have to take advantage of the time, while I still can show how I love her dearly. As I am typing this, I am shedding tears, and I think I miss her now. Maybe I'll be visiting her this week. Know what? when I am with my mom, I cook a lot, different recipes and I bake cakes too, I always show off her because Iwant to let her know how good cook I became, and all these I owe her. It was her who encouraged us brothers and sisters to be good in cooking and baking.(I just love those secret recipes she taught us all) She taught us kindness and the importance of showing kindness to people. She taught us on our early age how to become dependent ,and taught us how to fish, For that I am very proud of. Oh, I have so many many things more to count for the beautiful things my mother shared and still sharing. Happy my lotting

Hello jzy, My father was very strict too,when I was young, I thought I hate him too for being so strict to all of us, until later I realized that He was indeed a good father who pretended to be strict to us children, because He wanted to just direct us to right direction as father's usually do... I understand that you are now married, and with children ,Am I correct? why is it you are still depending upon the help of your mom? (financially?)Are you saying that you are still under her wings until this day? or you just need more help from her. How old is she now? I am sorry to ask this far, please don't get me wrong. Just wondering. Happy mylotting.
