Looking forward to having a mother who loves you may be the expectation of every child in childhood, not only the child, but even as an adult, the love from a mother is also the desire in my heart.


When I was a child, I always felt that I lacked maternal love, because most of my mother's efforts were on my father. When I had long memories, my parents would always quarrel. I am often away from home. I still remember a time when my mother went out early in the morning, and I cried for a long time while holding my mother-like clothes.


Time has allowed me to grow, but it has also separated me from my mother. I couldn't agree with the way my mother raised me, so I finally moved to my grandpa's house according to my mother's instructions. At first, I felt very lonely, but after a long time, I didn't want to go home at all. I like to live in my grandpa's house, because there is an aunt who loves me. She has taken me to buy clothes since the sixth grade of elementary school. , eat supper, and occasionally buy small snacks or toys for me when we go shopping together in the market.


I cling to my aunt because for the first time I felt someone loved me and cared about me, so wherever she went, I would follow her like a follower. Every night, I sit at my desk reading and doing homework, but I always think in my heart, "When will my aunt come home?"

Years later, I got married, and I had another mother—my mother-in-law. At first, I was always shy to call her "Mom", because for so many years, "mother" was a strange character to me. My mother used to dislike children calling her mother, but I knew she had my daughter in her heart. , so once upon a time, I was always a little cautious to hide myself and get along with her, but the more I wanted to be loved, the more I couldn't even play myself well, what exactly is maternal love? I always feel lost.


After becoming a wife, I suddenly fell ill. At first, I didn't dare to let my biological mother know. I was worried that her original melancholy mood would be affected, so I closed my heart tightly, but occasionally I lay on the hospital bed. I really want to confess to her in a limited life.


It takes courage to know that I am worthy of being loved. I couldn’t summon the courage to talk to my in-laws about my illness. I was afraid that I would be a burden to others, but fortunately, I have a husband who believes in love more than I do. He told my father-in-law and mother-in-law about everything for me, and everything I worried about became superfluous! They care about me, love me, take care of my needs and sadness, and after leaving the hospital, I can always drink a big pot of chicken soup that my mother-in-law made for me.


I'm very lucky! I have another mother, my mother-in-law has a warm smile; I have an aunt who loves me, and I want to thank her for accompanying me through most of my childhood. Whenever I think of my aunt, I always feel hugged ;What's more gratifying, when I opened my heart and tried to tell my mother how I felt and what happened, I found that we are no longer the fragile mother and daughter of the past, and now I can talk to my mother about my own. That's right, and I know she loves me! Thank God for giving me so much maternal love, and I want to love like this in my lifetime.
