The Best Mother

My mom was one of the best mothers, raising nine children and more. I fondly remember her words, “See and blind, hear and deaf.”

As a child, I, Fabian, Natalie, Colleen, and Gary would always play marbles at the gate, and she would be on the veranda sewing. She would call me to come and thread the sewing machine for her. I would ask why I had to do it, little did I know that as you were aging, your eyesight was getting bad. This did not stop you from making our clothes and ensuring we were well taken care of.

Mom, I love you so much and will always cherish you always.

Your son, Cornelius (Boy-Boy)
