Chilly Chicken-65

Mother's day special, Chilly Chicken-65.

Happy Mother's day to all.

A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.

I am strong advocate of that Mother's are Best. Mother's are very important part of family and binds family together. I was very close to my mother. After my marriage, ofcourse i was very happy but somewhere in the corner of my heart i was feeling bit down as i have to be away from my family and mother.But because of my mother in-law i never felt that i am away from my mother as she also me as my mom. I am very happy that after 2 days i would be going back to India and would get a chance to meet everyone.
