A letter to mum



The same hands holding me in this picture have solved the most complex mathematical and life problems. They have have nurtured pilots, engineers, doctors, computer scientists and all sorts of geniuses. They have defied the odds.

You didn't have to give us a million dollars for us to appreciate you mum; you've given us the greatest gift of all - love.

Love is you holding us when we're miserable; guiding us when we're misdirected and whooping us when we've misbehaved.

Love is you giving yourself less so we could have more.

Love is you working hard to make others'  dreams come true.

Love is the way you love us.

Love is you and dad.

If ever you want to look at life and wonder where the trophies of all your strivings are; look at us, mum. 

We know what determination looks like; never giving up.
We know what it means to set our minds on something and go get it.
We know what it means to defy the odds, coz you've done it.
We are who we are because you've given us the opportunity to be.

Thank you.

God chose the very best for us.

Happy Birthday Mummy!!

We love you more than words can say.

Yours gratefully,

Your children.
