From around the world



Books, books and more books.. who doesn't love them? One of my favorite places to go and rest are libraries. It gives me a warm fuzzy feeling just thinking about them. Even though there is not as much time as it used to be before I had kids, I still manage to find a minute or two to just sit down, relax and read a few pages every now and then. Hope you have a wonderful weekend, whether you are reading or not!

My mother



Is my best friend. She filled every single gap of my insecurities with love and understanding. I don't remember a moment when she wasn't there for me. But I often think of all the work she has done for us kids. One of the things I am grateful the most is that she stayed at home with us, it gave me such feel of safety and comfort that I never felt lonely.
Moments I treasure: sitting in her bed at 3am, snacking on salami and pickles, just because we felt like it. Or when I was leaving for college every Sunday, she waited at the bus station with me with a bag full of food so I could survive another week. And I can't forget our intimate shopping trips, picking out clothes and trying them on.. laughing. Oh my, how I love those trips!
I love her very much and am thankful that she taught me how to love endlessly and with all my heart.
Hope you have a wonderful Mother's day, make sure you make you mothers feel loved the way they deserve to be!
