Have Fun This Mother’s Day (A Funny Story)

Happy mother’s day to all the moms reading the site. Parents are great. Mom’s are something else, as they give birth to us. Me personally, my mom was in labor 36-hours and I was born a day late, with dark red hair.

I asked my mom what she wanted for mother’s day and she was unsure. So I said, "I’ll give you my debit card (bank card) and you buy what you want." She said okay, took the card and asked for the code, which I gave her. Then I jokingly told her, just call me when you get to the cash register and they ring up the stuff you picked…so I can call the police. I was just teasing, as I wouldn't do that to her. I love you mom. Happy Mother’s Day.

Because I wormed out of cooking Christmas dinner months ago (hey, I made the salad, that counts doesn't it) and thought I had gotten away with it (turns out I didn't) my family’s making me make the Mother’s Day dinner. I jokingly told them they’re gonna starve. I can cook well, on a restaurant level, but on holidays I get tired because of the amount of stuff I do on weekdays.

Barry Steenkamp stated, "If it didn't happen the way he says it did he must suffer and he will suffer. It does not matter how much money he has and how good his legal team is, he will have to live with his conscience. But if he speaks the truth, I can perhaps some day forgive him."

June Steenkamp said of her daughter's death, "She loved like no-one else could love. She had so much of herself to give and now all of it is gone. Just like that, she is gone. In the blink of an eye and a single breath, the most beautiful person who ever lived is no longer here. All we have is this horrendous death to deal with, to get to grips with. All we want are answers, answers as to why this had to happen, why our beautiful daughter had to die like this."
