Felt so sorry for lost the precious and cherish mama @englishtchrivy , It's a very saddened to lost mom. And yes you are right I do tell my friends let everyone take care of his or her parents that is the best you can give or offer to them since they are still alive, not until he/she died before we started slaughter ram, cattle and wanted to even kill gold for everyone to know those children did their mother burial fantastic as cultural believe demanded. For those of us who our mom still alive or dad let try as much as possible to do everything to show our gratitude for their priceless effort towards us Dear Ivy, you did something special for her even that good night kisses meant a lot to her when she was alive I want to believe that, my mom always said nothing you give your mum which could satisfied her like she felt your warm hugs, that reminds them alot about the time past and see us now make them happy till extent when you live your presence still feel in her bone and Whole body and everything she eat or drink or see your gift to her ... Then her heart blesses you.

Warm regards
