When there is much to do & patience wears thin, the camel's back can be weak & it doesn't take a straw to break it. Only hours awake, & already complete with kid (& adult) tantrums & ugly yells & a mother who keeps flailing & failing in hope & joy making, yet...
A boy who finds a way to make a mother feel better & accepted.

| "Open it mummy, " he prompts as he watches on the exasperation on the face of a mother getting a son to do schoolwork. After his gentle second reminder, the mother opens the surprise to find a gift within a gift, "Happy Mother and Isaac love wu" |

And continues to love her in other ways... rummaging in the fridge to make a fruity-vege salad with Thousand Island sauce all by himself for a special Mother's Day. And later offers to cook up cheese omelette. And more love notes.
Good thing i let the kids handle knives early on. Heh.. :P |
And then...
