This is something emotional for the night.

This year, for Mother's Day and Father's Day, my siblings and I bought my mum a Swarovski bracelet and my dad, the Diablo III. I don't particularly follow such celebrations. These gifts are merely material goods, which as itself don't really mean anything but seeing their faces lit up even for just that moment makes me very happy. Hearing my mum's genuinely surprised voice when she saw the gift placed on her pillow. Watching my dad behaving like a young excited teenager when presented with his new game. I'm happy. I hope they're happy too. 

 I would just like to say that I love my parents… a lot. And as I recall how much of a brat I'd been growing up. Yes, I was difficult. Even now. I'm thankful for their patience and perseverance and care. Even with my demands and moods and strange behaviors, they didn't give up. I believe they have given me the best, and I've yet to return them the best. They don't owe me anything, instead I owe them a huge debt. Still they don't ask me for anything in return. 

 My mum who'd sang me the ABCs and the 123s and the alif ba ta, who I go to when I'm bawling my eyes out in the middle of the night because sometimes I'm just crazy emotional like that and all I need is a hug, who tells me never to give up, who teaches me patience and forgiveness, who cooks the most delicious lauk semur, who packs me lunch and kisses me goodnight and reminds me to pray and to always be thankful to our Creator. My mum who loves me for who I am. 

 My dad who'd work crazy shifts just to provide the best for me and my siblings, who'd introduced me to comics and computer games and the Neverending Story and the Lord of the Rings, who'd brought me and my family for holidays and some amazing adventures, who introduced me to National Geographic and Discovery Channel, who protects me, who teaches me strength and perseverance, who reminds me of how amazing and awesome and great our Creator is. My dad who loves me for who I am. 

 I'll try my best to provide them with all the prayers I can give, and be a better daughter. Thank You God, for giving me the best parents.
