The Sweet Joy of Family

As we join the cause to make October 20, National Thank You Day, a national holiday, I would like to take this opportunity to thank the 2 most important people in my life.

Thank You

I would like to thank my mom & my aunt for taking care of me, for putting up with me, for sacrificing for me and most of all, for loving me unconditionally.

My mom raised me all by herself while my aunt treated me like her own.  I learned a lot from them about life.  I learned to be strong, independent & learned to appreciate the love & care people give to me.  I won’t be surviving now if not for them.

My mom’s & aunt’s love and their lessons on life are most precious to me. These are the kind of lessons that can never be learned from school, but only through family. This is something precious that we all get from the most important people in our lives.

We rarely see each other. We live in three different countries. I may not be blessed with a large family, but having two of the most wonderful people in the world as family is enough for me.

Tears fall as I write this post…

My mom and my aunt is family.  They are my life.  No words could ever express the depth of my love for both of them.

I love them both…

    I come from the exact opposite kind of family: I have a big and very involved one. However, whether families are big or small, you're right when you say that the most important lessons we learn in life come from them.

    thanks for joining my contest Roch!!!

    you're welcome. Thanks too because your contest gave me the chance to thank my mom and aunt though I know this isn't enough.. thank you isn't really enough to thank the people most dear to us.
