a letter from a daughter to her mother

dear mom,

i hope you're having an awesome day. i'm not a very eloquent person and not a very great daughter. i'm too timid to say this right to your face, so i'm doing this here. 

happy birthday! i'm sorry i can't be here today for your big day. i'd just want to wish you a good coming year and that may all the sorrows be gone. i know i have been a shit difficult daughter, but all i want to say is that i do really love you, from the bottom of my heart. i promise. 
let's make a list of all the things i've upset you and how i'm going to improve:
  • going out too often - i promise i'd go out less, and be more of a couch potato
  • eating all the snacks at home - i won't eat less, but i'll remind you to get more food
  • getting too many movies on iTunes - i'll rent them and i'll save money
  • dying my hair part blonde - never will i make that mistake again. asian and proud
  • spending too much in general - but hey, a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do
  • being insensitive - i'll try to notice more
  • not calling home enough - there's no way to dodge this, my bad. i'll call home more often
  • sleeping too much - you all who don't know me in person, it's a problem. no joke. i'll sleep less
  • getting tattoos without you knowing - but now that the cat's out of the bag. i'll tell you if i get more
last but not least:
  • i'll be a better daughter, i'd care more and i'll notice. i'll tell you what i feel like and i'll listen to you. i promise i'll be the best daughter you'll ever come across. i'll spend more time with you, not because it's the right thing to do, but because i want to and i care.
mommy, i do love you, even though sometimes i don't show it (it's hard sometimes when i'm not home, i promise i'll try to show it more often). you are the best thing that has ever happened to me. or let's say without you, there won't be me. you're the reason why i am who i am today and i thank lord for giving you to me, instead of some other crappy mother (not that i know if she'd be crappy or not, but hell, she's not you, so yeh she'd be crappy). i am so lucky i got you as my mother and i love you.

you're the most beautiful women i've ever met. nothing will ever change this and you're the most important person in my world. for you birthday, i wish you good health and good humour all the time, so you'll be able to one day in the far future see your grandchildren and joke about my ever horizontal-growing body. because it's a mother-daughter thing to joke about each other's sizes :)

mommy, you've probably heard this enough today, but happy birthday one last time. i hope you'd have a wonderful day and i love you. always.

with lots of love and kisses,
mobee
