ma!

I wonder what it is that mothers do to develop such patience towards their kids 'n family. They go out of their way to do little things for kids. Always complimenting them on their attempts, encouraging them when they fail, and supporting them in their decisions.

I am not nearly as patient, understanding, or loving as my mum. I am not nearly as humble, talented, or sophisticated as my grandmother. Even her soft & wrinkled hands seem to have a character. Mothers...they give so much & expect so little. It is unreal how easy it is to make them happy. They always amaze me.
