Happy Mother's Day to all Moms.

This is my Ammi.For me she is the best mother in the whole world.
Ammi,thank you for the sacrifices that you have made for us sisters and for instilling in us such good values. I realise your worth and understand the greatness of your MKD (Maa ka dil) all the more now that I’m the mother of grown up kids.
Here is a small poem to felicitate all mothers
"Mother" is such a simple word,
But for me it is like a keyword,
For everything I am today,
My mother’s love showed me the way.
I’ll love my mother all my days,
For enriching my life in so many ways.
She set me straight and then set me free,
And that’s what the word "mother" means to me.

Tas

Mere 'salaam' aapke ammi jaan ke liye ! Why is she brooding ?

Omkar said...

Tas,
Where's your mama these days? Regards to her.

Tasneem said...

@Naresh-Will convey you salaam to Ammi. She is not brooding-its probably jet lag and tiredness! She had just arrived in Toronto from India.
@Omkar-Ammi is at Kolkata with my younger sis. Will convey your regards too. Thnx

Your mom is really beautiful and has a lot of poise and grace. Come back to India fast and blog her pictures from the black and white era.
