Old Celebration, New Meaning
Happy Mother's Day, Mom.
This'd be the first time I'd be meaning what I say. I know she's a happy mother. Broken, but happy, cos she's got genuine love and concern showered upon her for the first time in her life. And I thank God for bringing me down this road, where the woman I once feared more than anything else in the world would come to be my friend. What a tumultuous journey we've been through! But I'd say at the end of it all I'm really proud of my mom and glad to have this relationship with her after so long. It was the weirdest feeling I got as Mother's Day drew near; I began to remember the times that we've been through and joyous occasions she's recently been so much a part of. OCS graduation day, Roses&Hello musical, and I'm amazed at how we've grown to respect each other mutually and trust and understand each other over the year or so after we've reconciled. So there we have it. One grateful son blogging about one really touched mother who woke up to a candlelit table with a bouquet of daisies and a heartfelt card.
