Superwoman

She's not the prettiest woman that you have seen on earth, her features has nothing in particular that can let you look at her for another glance when she is seen on the streets...she has deep wrinkles around her eyes when she smile and she look like she is in her forties. She is just another simple woman to anyone of you that has read my blog.

To me, she's a great mummy and has done fantastically well, exceeded her role as a mother to us and a wife to my daddy. A little background about her...she married to my dad at a pretty young age, twenty one and bring me to this greeny earth. She stayed home to bring us up till my younger sister was born. She suffered quite a bit when she have me staying with my grandparents. Heard that my dad's family used to be rich in the olden days and my dad was born with a sliver spoon in his mouth. My mum had to work doubly hard. When my dad becomes more independent and managed to find a job in the outside world after graduating, their tough lives started. After my sister is born, my mum has to find work outside to help subtain the family's expenses. By then there are 3 of us and my parents, single man working to subtain or to feed 5 mouths is tough. They continue working seeing us to finish school. It sounds like most typical family...

During the 90s', there is a period of recession coming by and my dad lost his job and my mum helps to subtain the family by holding 3 jobs, working non-stop day and night trying to meet the ends. This lasted for more than a year. She still ensures that we get cooked meals everyday by cooking as early as 5am before she left for work and ensure the soup is left boiling in slow cooker so that it will be ready for our dinner. She saves the best for us, everything she has, just to ensure we get to spend like normal kids. We are never deprive of anything.Whenever she faced a problem or our family do face any, she will shoulder it herself. Given this situation to me, I might not even survive.

What more can we ask for? Now we have all started working, earning a living. I hope we can all provide her with a life that she no longer has to worry about providing. Mummy, though I never said this to you...Mummy, I love you lots and will definitely take good care of you.
