Yesterday morning my mum had told me (after I'd stated that I was up all night again) that she was nearly crying that early morning because of how lonely she felt, (my dad was at work, and my mum works til 4am in her room) So I told her that next time she felt like that, she should call on me and I'll come down and keep her company.

So I was up all night again today, and no sign of my mum calling me so I thought right she's happy hopefully. At 6am I had to go wake my little sister up so I dived on her and we sat chatting/giggling/actually being like sisters should for once! she went downstairs came back up from after a shower then I asked her.. "Molly, would you like to do something nice for mum, you know just to make her smile." and she said ok.

My first thought was a poem, so I asked molly, what would you put in a poem to do with mum so she was all "I don't know, you're the poet not me!" lol. So I sat down and wrote this poem:

All our lives you've made us smile,
In sadness and from hope,
But sometimes we know,
The fight means nothing,
But make us love you even more.

So take this time to know we care,
As this poem shows,
So instead of smiling for us,
Smile because we show..
You'll always mean the world.

I then got my big brother and little sister to sign it, aswell as signing it myself.. Asked my little sister to tape it onto her door so that the first thing she see's when she wakes up, is that.

Today my EMS USB2 came so my mum called up to me "TIFF YOUR PACKAGE HAS COME" and I jumped out of bed and went downstairs, then she said to me. "Thank you for that poem this morning, it really made me feel special and she gave me a cuddle and a kiss.", then asking what made us think of it. I mentioned it was my idea and why I had thought of it in the first place and again she said it was special and I feel really good about myself. Us kids don't usually do much for her but for once I decided maybe we should, even if it was just something small.. But something small can mean the world too.

Have you ever done something like that? Done something special to make someone feel special and then proud that you did it in the first place? And if you could do something for anyone you know what would it be?
