There are so many things that is good about you, so many things to love about you. There is so much that you have done for me, and the family, that i am sure nobody knows about, that you have done secretly just out of love. For that, thank you mummy! (:
Many times I’ve let you down, many times i have disappointed you, many times I’ve made you cry. I want to apologize for all the hurt i have ever caused you.
You are my source of inspiration, my emotional support and my tower of strength. When i needed someone to pick me up, you were there. When i needed to learn to be independent, you would let me handle things on me own.
From young, i have never heard you say that you want straight As or number 1 positions from me, but you have always stressed that i give my best in everything i do.
Dear mom, i am sorry for all the things i have done wrong, i thank you for all the things you have done for me and all the things you have taught me. Thank you for being who you are and loving me as your son.
You are the best mom ever. Happy 50th birthday!
These are the only pictures i have of you in my computer
Love you mummy! Miss you very much too!
