Two years ago, I never thought I would live alone with my mom and my cat, but here we are now. After my dad passed away, I brought my mom to live with me in Jogja, where I live. We also adopted Bulet, the cat on my lap, to add to the family. However, I won't talk much about the cat in this post since this post is dedicated to my mom. Talking about my mom, she is actually not a highly educated person, not even having a middle school degree. For most of her life, she used to do household chores which of course, are far from easy. Despite her limitations, she amazingly managed to raise her three children to get higher education and be who they are right now. So, what makes me really grateful for my mom? Her superb care, absolutely. I still remember when I was in elementary school, she used to escort me to school and pick me up while holding my hand. Until now, she sometimes worries and waits for me when I come home late. In addition, she also likes to give me the best part of her food. If you watched the First Love series on Netflix, my feeling could relate to how Tsuzuru felt when her mom treated him. Those little acts of love are always meaningful to me, making me thankful to have her as my mom. Besides her relationship with me, my mom also has a cute love-hate relationship with our cat. She was actually not a cat person, but I can guarantee she is today. Although Bulet makes her complain every day about his craziness and noise, my mom always has a heart towards him. There was one time when Bulet ran away from home overnight. That day, my mom became the most worried person, back and forth looking out for the cat. She told me she couldn't sleep well because of her thoughts on our cat. The morning after that, I could see how relieved my mom was when Bulet came back home asking for food. Living and accompanying my mom in her old age and receiving her love also makes me grateful this Mother's Day. She will always be my most fabulous mother, and I wish her peace, health, and happiness forever. Happy Mother’s Day to you, the mothers, and your exceptional moms too! https://www.instagram.com/p/Cmd0vx8P50litGXhkTjYrW4YvWOtFXY-u4maGc0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
