Growing up, i saw the sacrifices my parents made on a daily basis for us. I remember, years back then in Cameroon, when my mum goes to her botique and she did not make as much sells as she wanted to, when she comes back home no matter how bad that day was, she tries to stay positive and not to make us know that she is worried so we don't get worried too.
All my days from primary school till now, when ever we have a need and we go to her, even if there was no money at that time, she has a way of assuring us that she will reach that need.
My mum always tells me that she makes all these sacrifices just so that we can be succesfull and live a confortable life. I know that some times, the weight on her shoulders gets so heavy and she wishes some one could just help lift it up.
The best gift i can give my mum and i know it's her heart's desire. I will take her on a trip abroad, she is not going to do anything again, all she will do is relax. Me and my sibling, it will be one luxurious trip to another, buying all the clothes, the shoes that she could not get for her self, not because she didn't have the money but because she had to reach our needs.
She has been the one taking care of us, now its her turn to relax and be taken care of.
