She caters. She cleans. She makes us a family. My mom, Lesly Tucux is my superwomen. I've never considered all she does for us, and now that I think of it, she's more than just an ordinary mom. She includes details and small suggestions that make a difference. When she makes dinner, she MAKES dinner. Food, dessert, drinks, sets the table, and receives us with a smile. As tight-knit as my family can be, dinner is the time when we relax, unwind, and reconnect with each other from out long day at school, and of course, work. When I consider all that she accomplishes in her day, I'm admired and I cannot believe after all she does, after her long, stressing day, she puts on a smile and shows us we're worth it. Her creative ways of catering to us are seen in her signature sugar cookies, her red velvet cupcakes with homemade icing, and her artistic table decorations. As i sit there watching The Simpsons at 6:30, the smell of her food starts to seep in through my windows and door, and I know she has once again made delicious heart-warming food. I've never actually thought about how much time and effort a dinner like hers takes. I'm too wrapped up in the delicious taste of it. I know it doesn't mean the world to anyone, but it does to me. Thank you Mom, for everything you do for us everyday, and for making us the family we are.
