Musings on Mom

It’s easy to compile a bunch of thoughts, but for someone you see everyday, it’s also easy to take that person for granted.

As much as I have struggled with finding the right words to say, my struggles will never surpass your struggles. Not only did you have to deliver me into this world, but you also had to nurture me as a team with my dad and Nanay. And for that and over a thousand other unconditionally altruistic things you have done for me--except for those days when you drank my milk tea boba in the fridge and have dad buy us more--I would like to thank you for everything! You are the strongest, most skeptical, and stylish mom I know. I’m trying to think of other well-describing ‘s’ adjectives for Sarah, but I will get back to you on that. Happy Mom’s Day!
