Being a mom is the hardest job in the world.

The Procter & Gamble 2012 Olympic Games commercial reminded me a lot of my childhood school days.

I remember how my mom would come ever morning to wake each of us up – 4 biological siblings and half a dozen extended siblings.

I remember how she’d prepare lunch boxes for us and how I always lose those nice little boxes 😦

At the end of each year, the best gift I can give back to my mom is bringing her up to the stage with me.

Being a mom is the hardest job in the world.

But it’s also the best.
