My first letter to Mummy

Dear Mum,

I know that I am a coward. I dare to write it here, let everyone else read it, but I never dare to let you know what I'm writing here.

You know what?

Yesterday, I've been repeating this sentence to you " Come, let me hold you, I'll bring you cross the road. " and I pretend that I don't know how to cross it and finding excuse so that you could bring me.

Well, the truth is, your girl had already grown up. She learnt how to cross the street on her own. All she want to do is to make sure you could hold her hands tightly and bring her cross the road. I wonder since when you don't hold my hands when across the street as if you already knew I can handle it on my own. But no matter how old I've grow, I just know it from the bottom of my heart is that I'm your baby girl, forever.

I know it's hard for you to let me go. Every time I mentioned about study abroad, you just switch the topic. People told me is that you don't want me to leave you. Well, it's okay, how many mum in the world could afford to ask their children to stay away from her? But I just want you to know, that is one of my dream, which I know you can't afford it and I don't demand it at all from you. I'm just trying hard to achieve what I want. All I want is your support, and that would be more than enough.

This is my first letter for you. Next time I would write every good thing you did and it will always remind me how lucky am I to have you as my mum, I'm proud of you, and I wish someday you would say you are proud of me too! =)

Sounds weary to me and I really don't like it. Put it a stop here. I'll continue next time.

Best regards,
Stalie Lim.



P.S. I love you, mum.
