Home Sweet Home

My mother is always sending me packages of photo albums she put together, journals, cut outs in magazines and food that she made. I think my mom is the Queen of Hospitality. When we have people over to the house she wants to make sure that they feel comfortable in every way possible. She will stuff their faces with her good cooking, talk their ear off, make sure they feel at home, listen for hours to people's concerns, and then send them home with leftovers and desserts. Some may think she is trying to put on a show, but if you look past the surface you will realize that she genuinely loves to do this. She doesn't feel the obligation to do it. However, she does want to do it because it brings her and others joy. It's not only the people she loves doing it for, she loves being of service, she loves to help and provide for the people she cares about. My mom has inspired me in more ways than one but I hope that I can someday show this much love to the people I care about also.
