And everything you never did came crashing down like
thunder. Let us take a moment of the time just to pay tribute/show
appreciation to the SPECIAL person called MOTHER though some may not
say it openly to their mother.There's no substitute for her.

Cherished every single moment. Though at times she may not be the best
of friends, may not agree to our thoughts,

she
is still your mother!!! She will be there for you…to listen to
your woes, your bragging, yourfrustrations, etc. Ask yourself. have
you put aside enough time for her, to listen to her "blues" of working
in the kitchen, her tiredness??? Be tactful, loving and still show her
due respect though you may have a different view from her.

Once gone, only fond memories of the past and
also regrets will be left
