Mom, Me and Memories

My Mother always say that I am One In A Million, I know that your mother say this too, well, not about me but about you obviously. yes, Mothers are always like that irrespective of the cast, color or religion.

Right from the day I was born, she has taken care of me, I have always dictated her for everything, be it, what it would be in the Tiffin for my lunch or what color T-shirt I want. She never said ‘No’ to me. She used to wake up half an hour before me so that she could prepare iron my uniform, polish my shoes and prepare my breakfast etc.

She was the one who used to lend me money when my pocket money (given by Dad) was over. She was the one who used to sign on my ‘Report Card’ when I was scared to show it to Dad because of my poor marks. She was the one who used to feed me by her own hands while I used to shout at her that I don’t want to eat more and let me watch the TV. It was only her who understood that my ‘One Minute! Mom’ was usually 10 minutes or even more.

During my exams, she used to stay awake late nights just to make sure that she is there if I need something, she used to get more tensed than me on 31st March which used to be my result declaration day at my school.

All that happened when I was a toddler and did have the brain to understand this emotional bonding, but today when I saw my cousin brother, who is of the same age as I was, 10 years ago, giving orders and dictating his mother to switch on the TV, set the Cartoon channel, switch on the AC and bring some water, all of it at the same time, he believed that all his demands will be fulfilled by his mother. Now I am able to understand the bonding between Mother and Child. Yes, it’s the mother who does so much for us.

I am living thousands of miles away from home from almost 8 years but it never has been more than 2 months where I don’t meet them. Thanks to the technology that I talk to her on phone every alternate day, and I love her so much. I am so lucky that I get to talk to her.

Baby

But that is not enough, we all have got mothers, and it is impossible to be born without a Mother unless you are God’s son, which you are not. So, if you have got a mother, you should go ahead and tell her that you love her so much, thank her to bring you in this world after so much pain. If you are an Idiot like me who doesn’t know how to express your emotions in from your parents, then I’ll suggest you to gift her something as Mother’s Day is around. And if you are Broke, then borrow money from your friends, and if your friends are broke too, that you really need to make a rich friend (ok will talk about it later) take some time out and give her a handmade card which says Mom! I Love You or something like this make sure you have got a good handwriting. and if you are not able to do anything like this, then simply saying ‘I love You Mom’, to your mother will do.

I too have been thinking on writing a blog post about it, as being a blogger, this is my way to show my love to my mother, I know that my mother is never going to read this blog post, as she is not that much into Computers and might think that ‘Blog’ is the name of a Dog or any animal or something. But still I am writing this as my friend Chetan Bhawani has given a tribute to his mother on his blog.

As the Mother’s Day is around, BlogAdda has organized a contest asking for giving a tribute to your mother and has also asked what you are going to gift to your mother this Mother’s Day. Well, I would gift a Mug from Pringoo.com, don’t worry, you can make your own design and order it.

I just would want you guys to let your Mothers know that you really care about your them and they should not cry watching Baghban for God’s Sake and we are not that bad.

    Wow, sometimes we don’t realize how much our mothers have done for us. Sometimes you see kids who disrespect their mothers, and don’t do anything they say what-so-ever. You have to feel bad for those parents, who love their child so much, and their children hate them in return. I’m glad you and your mom get along so well. I hope you guys have an excellent mothers day!
