Today, it’s Mother’s Day. The day where mothers of the world get recognized for all they do for their children. Mother’s Day is one of my favorite holidays.
I love my mom so much.
She has helped me become an adult. Ever since I started college, I've felt lost and scared. But my mom was always there for support. I always go all out for my mom on Mother’s Day. Chocolates, flowers, perfumes, everything my mom loved, she got. I actually spoiled her more on Mother’s Day than her birthday. I feel like her birthday is just recognizing her age, where Mother’s Day recognizes everything she does for me. Anywhere from helping me choose a college, to helping me decide which dress looked better on me, she’s always been there for me.
I love my mom so much.
I've been buying her presents for her throughout this whole past week. I first bought her favorite perfume, orange scented. My mom loves her orange perfume. Then I bought her flowers, she absolutely adored daisies. I got her a bouquet with a mix of brightly colored ones. I also baked her a cake last night, red velvet, her favorite. She always tells me she’s trying to cut down on sweets, but I think one cheat day for her favorite cake on her special day won’t hurt.
I love my mom so much.
Last night after I helped her to bed, I set everything I bought her on the table, the flowers, perfume, candy, and a card. I decided to leave the cake in the refrigerator so it wouldn't go bad. I laid in my bed trying to sleep, but I couldn't. I was too excited to celebrate tomorrow with my mother, my role model. I somehow managed to fall asleep a couple of hours later, because I awoke to the sun rolling into my room. I looked over to the alarm clock, it was only 6:23 AM, I still had time to make my mom breakfast! I rolled out of bed with a smile on my face and walked into the kitchen. I decided on pancakes with a side of eggs and toast, it was one of her favorites. I pushed back all the goodies I had gotten her to the back of the table and set out plates and forks. I set out all the food and took a step back to admire everything I have done. It was perfect. My mom is going to love it. I walked into her bedroom and saw she was still laying in bed, fast asleep. I carefully walked over to her bed and leaned down next to her face and said “Mom, its Mother’s Day! Your favorite day of the year!”. She was laying still, she must of been very tired last night.
I love my mom so much.
I decided I couldn't wait any longer for her to see the surprises I had made just for her, so I picked her up and helped her out into the dining room. I sat her down in the chair across from mine and put some pancakes on her plate for her. I sat in my chair and looked at her. “Happy Mother’s Day Mom! I love you so much! I hope you enjoy the delicious breakfast I made you!” She still wasn't moving, she must of been exhausted last night. I put some pancakes on my plate and decided I would start eating without her, I knew she wouldn't mind. I kept eating and noticed my mom was still fast asleep, I was starting to get upset that she still hasn't woken up. She’s missing out on her special day. I got up and walked over to her side of the table and lightly shook her. I wanted to wake her up without scaring her. She still wasn't moving, she was being very rude. I was starting to get angry now. I shook her arm, more aggressively now. “Mom! You have to get up! You can’t waste away your special day!”. As I was shaking her arm, I noticed she had lost a lot of weight, her arm was so light now, almost bony. I was so angry that I just kept shaking her arm until it just fell off. I fell to the floor with her arm in my hand. No, this can’t happen, not on her special day. I started crying and I ran over to the cupboard and grabbed some duct tape. I aggressively tried to tape her arm back on her. She still hasn't woke up, I know she’s just very tired. I decided I should put her back in bed to rest. She just needs rest. When I tried to pick her up, her frail body broke into a bunch of pieces. All her bony limbs fell all over the dining room floor. I grabbed the duct tape and taped her back together. This can’t happen on her special day. I carried her into her bedroom and set her down on her bed. She always looks so tired. No matter how long she sleeps in bed all day, she’s still tired. All she needs is more rest. And when she wakes up, we will finish this perfect Mother’s Day.
I love my mom so much.
