twas mother's day in most parts of the world yesterday. thanks for you guys who sent me e-mails and sms messages - i'm touched! incidently, it's not yet mother's day here in sweden (it will be on 27 may). kinda weird, huh? anyway, i celebrate mother's day everyday with my husband and son in my own little way.
i practically grew up with my maternal grandparents and i have lots of surrogate mommies (thanks to my friends) - they are my extended families. the true essence of mother's (or father's) day is to thank your mother for all that she is and the sacrifices she made just for you. and you have to mean it when you say "happy mother's day" since it is some form of acknowledgement on your part.
with my own family, every day for me is always a blessing - especially when i get to hear my alexander whisper "i love you, mommy" in my ear before he goes to bed ... it felt like heaven! it's simply a wonderful feeling when i get a cuddle or two from both my husband and son before going to bed. what a blessed life i live!
i know in my heart that i deserve a "happy mother's day"-greeting.
do you?
