My Special Gift
I feel very special on “my day,” Mothers Day. The feeling of gratification and a greater sense of purpose came about some years ago upon the arrival of a very special person in my life, my son. Yes, a priceless gift and one that has filled me with so much joy that today the celebration is more about him! My Mother’s Day Gift – The Life Of My Son!
My son is now a young adult and I no longer lead or walk beside him; instead I now observe from afar with grateful eyes. He walks tall, not because he is tall in stature, but because he is confident and determined to be accomplished; achieve his personal goals while also assisting others. You may recall that in my blog I wrote about his sense of accomplishment in school after completing a task or exam successfully.
Having a child is definitely not for the faint of heart but my son unknowingly gave me the courage to be brave. So, on this Mothers Day, I thank him for choosing me to be his nurturer and protector. My single most important wish is for him to continue on his life’s journey and fulfill his purpose.
To be a mother of a son is one of the most important things you can do to change the world. Raise them to respect women, raise them to stand up for others, raise them to be kind”

My Army of One
Oh what joy my son has brought to my life! He is my support system, an army of one! When he was a child, his tiny hand would hold mine when I seem sad. His laughter and carefree attitude gave me courage as we journeyed from our homeland to start a new life in another country. His presence gave me courage; my army of one! I admire the young man he has become and feel proud to be called his mom. Mothers Day; a day bestowed on me by my son. I am grateful for my Mothers Day Gift- the life of my son!

This mother’s day I’m sending this beautiful gift to my mom who is struggling with her obesity. I really hope this will help her to achieve her goal. I love her the way she is but if she wants to become whatever she sees fit, I’m with her on this journey.
