“My mother was a very loving, beautiful and caring person to me, actually. So she was very very strong. She will do anything to see me come first in anywhere or even class. Anytime I come back from school, she always wants to know what happened. So, that is the loving part about mommy. She’s the best mother in the world to me. When I heard she was dead, I was not that surprised because she had always been saying it. She has always been saying it. She cracked jokes to make everywhere lively, and that’s the main reason why I also miss mommy. I know you’re dead right now, but you will always be alive in my heart and in my dreams. I love you mommy. May your soul rest in peace.”
