How could you feel the importance of this day? For me, it isn't always that important as my mom's birthday. It's just a special day to memorialize something. Gratitude is something that we can't even use money in exchanged. This simple little thing is our responsibility to know and show to our parents everyday, not only show it on this special day. However, we always don't act what we have said or thought. Don't stop or pause our love to parents on the special day only, let's treat everyday as a special day for them. Your guardians instead of being your parents.
I really love you mom and always admire your abilities.
For sure, we would still go for a nice meal on this special day. My mom wanted to try the pork knuckle since long time ago. Yet, we decided to have our dinner at Stadt German Cuisine. You can try the most famous pork knuckle and German sausage in the town. The portion for pork knuckle was too big. We found 3 persons hardly to finish, but we still managed to 'clean up' the food lastly. Too kenyang for me tonight, no pork for me in the following days.
Pork Knuckle honey
German salad & sausage
This was what we left lastly xD
Are you interested the origin of Mother's Day? Let's spend couple of minutes to read the following story.
"When the US Civil War ended in 1865, more than half a million soldiers lay dead, the economy was shattered, and people remained deeply divided politically. The observance of Mother’s Day in the United States began with two women’s efforts for peace and reconciliation during this time of anguish. In 1870, Julia Ward Howe called for an International Mother’s Day on which women would unite in opposing war in all its forms. A few years later, Anna Reeves Jarvis began her annual Mother’s Friendship Day in an effort to reunite families and neighbors alienated by the war. There is always great suffering when friends and families are fractured and unwilling to forgive." (Daily Bread 07.05.11)
