this is the first time I'm missing my Mumma's birthday in my 21 years and 13 days of existence so here's a thread dedicated to my mom 
She's beautiful, warm, determined (re: extremely stubborn), super optimistic and doesn't give a rats ass about coming off as too much when she offers a helping hand. This woman will go the extra mile for even a stranger cause she cares. And that's what I love about her.
She's such a great cook and a total scammer. You won't even realise what you're eating and you'll love it. Yam cutlets. Pumpkin soup. Fried pointed gourd.
For the first 10 years of my life she tricked me into believing that it's mutton pulao, turns out it was soya chunks.

She's super nice to hug, no wonder I'm such a chipku.
I have this annoying habit of constantly changing the radio channels and my dad gets so annoyed, he shuts it up and makes me sit it silence but not her, she let's me play trashy music as long as it's desi, that's her only condition.
Most of my internships have been back home and this woman has always planned her schedule around me. She has set up her afternoon meetings in my area so she could grab lunch with me even when we fought while we were stuck in 2 hours of traffic while driving to work.
For two years, everytime I went out on a date and my mum asked where I met the guy, I'd say I met him at some event. And a few months ago, she said "I know you meet them on Tinder, events banana bandh kar"
And that's how tinder has been normalized in this household.

My mum always gets a drunk text from me when I'm out drinking. She wakes up to an I love you from me while I sometimes wake up to a headache. Her way of accepting that I drink is by telling herself it's a phase so this too shall pass, oh the constant disappointment.
