Nothing compares to a mother's love. The love I have for my daughters brought me through my darkest hours. I hope she is still with you to see this wonderful winning complement.

This is so touching, Aditi. It shows very clearly your mother's pride and love in celebrating your wonderful accomplishment. It also demonstrates the humility of the writer that acknowledges her mother's significant part in that accomplishment. Beautifully written, my dear friend ~ John
