A letter to mom

Dear Mumma,

I know I have given you hard times most of the days, as I can see the exhaustion and frustration in you. I am sorry Mumma, I didn’t mean so. I know sometimes that you are at your wit’s end and you are just tired of me throwing tantrums out of the blue. You get upset when I don’t clean my room after play. According to you, I just don’t listen to your guidance and I feel unhappy when you yell at me. Mumma, I am trying to perceive each word of yours, but my energy and excitement about the world ditch me. Though I try to retain each information given by you, I fail due to my excitement to discover and learn new things in this beautiful creation. I have been conscious of my independence, and hence I try attempting a whole lot of new task but not yours. This annoys you occasionally and you blow up. I know you have been immensely patient when I am not concentrating on my studies. I cling to you and I love you because you are the one, I feel most secure with.

There are so many things I would like to tell you Mumma but my little mind keeps on wondering. I promise Mumma, I will gradually learn everything. I always yearn that “Well done Sweetheart”, expression when I crack something from you. I love you to the moon and back and I know so do you, mom.

Yours,

Lifeline Heer
