Aloha Friday #81

May 7, 2009 by  
Filed under aloha friday

Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday.

In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.

If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!

My question is:

What would you like to thank your Mom for this Mother’s Day?

    I would like to thank my mother for being herself. She has taught me the importance of being with family and how to be a good mother.

    Happy Mother’s Day all :)

    Teachig me that it’s okay to fail–what’s important is that you try again.

    Melissa says:

    For giving me life. My mom is complicated and sometimes I just don’t know about her. That may sound harsh, but if you knew how crazy she is, you’d understand.

  13. 13

    I’d like to thank her for warning me that “someday, you’ll have kids of your own and see for yourself” — she was right…I love her more now than ever.

    Happy Mother’s Day Mommy…yay for baby on the way — hope you are feeling better these days!

    tara says:

    for really just being an all around amazing mom :D

  33. 33

    Can I say everything?? She’s the greatest, and if I end up to be half as close to my kids when they’re grown as I am to my own mother, I’ll be satisfied. :)

  34. 34

    For all of her support and love when I was a child. Now that I have children of my own, I realize what a sacrifice it is and how much hard work goes into raising children. She did a wonderful job!

  35. 35

    I can’t possibly answer this question simply. There are SOO many things to thank her for. One thing I can share to thank her for is for her support to me as I learn about being a mom…soon to be mom of 2.
    I could go on and on but that would take forever.

    My mother and I don’t have a terribly normal relationship so this question is sadly not easy for me to answer – but you know I thank her for giving me life. :)

  39. 39

    Oh, I will so thank her for putting up with me when I was a brain-dead, arrogant, know-it-all, rebellious teenager. lol
