day 8 : mommy and me

          Each one of us holds a special relationship with our mothers in our lives. We love her, disappoint her, take her for granted, advise her but only when we ourselves become mothers do we realize her importance and sacrifice towards us. So, on the occasion of International Women's day, here is the prompt we received. We had to read books on our mothers!
