Today is Mother's Day..

Growing up I started to realise that the main condition and attribute my other half should satisfy is that:

In a worst case scenario where I am dead, or I am not around anymore, would I feel comfortable that my kids will be raised and grow up learning and being protected from by person a fully trust and give them the love and the lessons I would?

Probably this comes from my personal situation, as my mum had to grow up 3 kids almost alone because of my father's job.

Not a parent yet, but I am sure there's nothing that gives you more responsibility and can put such weight on your shoulders sometimes, I do know that, and I did understand that none teaches you to become a parent, but still, I have to acknowledge I don't thank or show enough my mum how grateful I am, and how much I admire her for what he did..

Much easier for me writing it here than say it to her directly.. and I know, I am so lucky because I could still tell this to her, and many others can't anymore unfortunately, and those one would tell "Do it now, or you will regret it big later.." and they would be so damn right.

.. will send her a message now, but probably will not find the right word, or will not be able to say what I should, but I will try to at least.
