I don't have many memories of Mother's Day's when I was younger. My Mum raised my brother and I on her own until I was nine when she then met my Step-Dad. We didn't have a lot of money at all, but I hope that before then she bought herself a little treat. I hope I made her a little homemade card. Knowing me, and knowing what I was like I probably wrote her an essay about how much I loved her and then I probably went and found something that was laying around the house and wrapped it up for her. Sometimes I'd use wrapping paper if we had some spare, but if not, it was usually a plain piece of paper.
Now that I'm a Mum myself, I really admire all that my Mum would have done for my brother and I on her own. I admire how much she would have given for us and how hard it must have been sometimes. Especially to have raised us on her own without much money. She always did what she could and she always made time for us. She taught us to be kind people, to have good manners and to never follow the crowd.
