Our mom is the best one who always tries to help and protect us: her family. She buys food and clean our stuff that we should be cleaning. She tries the best to give happiness to our family.
This woman give us things that no other kind of person can do. She has great responsibilities to help us.  She has power to do stuff she wants and uses that power to give us health and love, and all we do is nothing yet to repay her.
Yes, all we do is giving her orders and we don’t even say the magic words: “please” or “thank you”. She is like our slave and I don’t like that at all.
That is why I write this verse, so I can show you: people, how my  mother feels like: not just mine but also  others’ mothers too.
Merry Christmas Mom and everyone!
