So this Sunday is Mother's Day.

Do you think you'll be getting presents and cards telling you how much you are loved and appreciated? I hope so! But hey! If you don't, it's ok.

HE who made and called you to be a mother sees and knows what you have done and HE appreciates you!

Mothering is often a thankless job. (Think : how many times have you thanked your mom? I know I haven't done it much! ) But we still keep on doing what we need to do, right?

Personally, I don't like the big fuss over Mother's Day, just like the way I dislike the fuss made over Valentine's Day. The only people that benefit from all the fuss are the retailers and the restuarants! Eating out on those days are awful. The crowds are everywhere!

But enough about me. I'd like to take this opportunity to talk about someone who has been blessing our family with her love.

In the past months, our whole family has been "adopted" by Aunty Helen, the mom of one of my good friends. Aunty Helen has taken to mothering us by cooking delicious meals for us! This has been a real blessing to me, especially! Why? Coz I really dislike cooking! So, to have someone provide yummy home-cooked meals is a god-send!

Just yesterday, I was wondering glumly what to cook for dinner when the phone rang and it was Aunty Helen! She wanted to bring over food! Oh my! Talk about an answered prayer!

THANK YOU AUNTY HELEN
and
HAPPY MOTHER"S DAY !!!

Thank you for being such a blessing to us!

And for the rest of you mothers out there, Happy Mother's Day to you too!

A funny : For the past few years, our older children would ask dh what he is getting me for Mother's Day and he would reply, "Nothing!". To which they would ask, "Why?" And he would answer, "Coz she's not my mother!" Lol!
