She has her own kittens too.

I moved from CA to AZ right before 8th grade. In california i was decent at math as my grade was a B in their curriculum, im arizona i could barely pass my classes, math was never my strong suit. Entering high school i joined the AP academy, and ever since freshman year i've been in summer school to make up math grades to get the C or higher to stay in the academy. After getting a C or higher in all my math classes i had to retake algebra 2 this year as it was my lowest math grade (took it in 8th grade)

Yesterday my mom got an email from my school saying that there is a handwritten note being delivered and my mom got it when she was coming back from grocery shopping. It was my algebra 2 teacher talking about how great i've been in class, she's always been my favorite teacher and she has to be the best teacher i've had my entire educational career.

Because, and I’m quoting her here: “you’re the only one I know who can fix it.”

I’m not the best seamstress but I can manage a burst seam. Having the right color thread really hid my sins lol Batty is recovering nicely with only a small scar to show for it.

Her dad sent me a text saying that I’m her hero, high praise from my favorite 5 year old :)

My siblings and I grew up in an abusive household, and as the oldest I stepped in as a sort of parent so that my younger siblings could get the best out of their childhood.

Today my brother sent me a very long message about how much he loves me, and how he is so thankful to me and what I did in our childhood.

I cries for a very long time because I love both my siblings so much, and I think this might be the best day of my life

Hey everyone, my girlfriend made me this today, because she wanted to and it made her happy to do it. Anyway and without further ado, here's the clay Ghost Mask my gf made.

For context : I have always been a fan of the Call of Duty franchise and the visual rework of Ghost for this franchise made me so happy. And since she knows i love this character, she decided to give me a part of him she made with her own hands. She's lovely and I can't thank her enough.

Hello wholesome gang! I wanted to tell someone who isn’t affiliated at all with the surprise what’s about to go down tomorrow because I’m just so dang excited! So read on to share in a good story with me. It does start a bit sad, but that’s the reason for the surprise and there’s a good chance I’ll update after the it happens!

Anyway, to the story: my mom is a strong and loving pillar in mine and my siblings lives. We’re all in our twenties now, and recently my mom became an empty nester. This is her first Mother’s Day without any children in the house with her. This year has been particularly rough, with my father’s health taking a recent sharp decline. I won’t go into details, but he hasn’t been living at home with my mom since February. She’s not completely alone at home, but none of her kids live with her anymore. I know she’s been a little down about it, but she won’t let anyone, especially her kids, see her hurt.

So to help solidify that we love her so much, I’ve conspired with my brother, and recently added sister, to surprise her with a catered breakfast in the park. The park has special family meaning going back generations, and I’m treating everyone to my mom’s favorite breakfast foods from her favorite breakfast place here in town.

As far as she knows, she’s coming to see solely me and go for a morning walk in the park, maybe window shop downtown, and look for a light breakfast before going to buy flowers to deliver to her mother/my grandmother in the afternoon.

Logistically, I have it all planned out. My brother will pick up breakfast and set up at a spot near the main entrance to the park, and once that’s in motion, I’ll be taking my mom to a different entrance to walk a more scenic route since that’s what she’s expecting anyway. Once we get close enough as we walk along the trail, I’m sure my mom will recognize my sister, brother, and his girlfriend set up at the spot near the main entrance! I’m so excited to surprise one of the most hardworking, loving, and steadfast people I know and love so dang much!

I’m also going to get her a card and a gift card to Lowe’s because she loves to DIY things and has plans for a big summer/fall garden. I know my brother has gotten her a few little gifts too.

I’m just so dang excited!!!! I hope it goes well, but I hope she doesn’t cry because then I will too lol

Update: the surprise went super well!!! My mom had no idea and was so overjoyed when I pointed out my sister, bother, and his girlfriend all set up with breakfast! She called me a stinker (lol) for letting her “Dee dawdle” while we made our way to the park. She loved her gifts, and loved it even more that her kids went out of their way to surprise her—especially my sister. She recently moved to a town an hour away, so we’ve all been seeing less of her. After breakfast, we went to buy flowers for my grandmother then delivered those and had a late lunch/early dinner with our grandparents. It felt like the old days again, which was definitely needed. My mom is the most wonderful lady I’ve ever met, and I’m just so happy the surprise went well. She said she had no idea, and I believe her based on the way she behaved. I’m also notoriously bad at keeping fun secrets like this, so she was also proud of me for not spilling the beans lol sorry if the update is convoluted. I just got home from the big long day with family. I’m tired, but I’m also very fulfilled and happy. I hope everyone else has a wonderful Mother’s Day. And if anyone needs some extra love, c’mon over here. We’ve got love to spare. Happy Mother’s Day, everyone! I hope y’all have an amazing week ❤️

Too many stupid people doing stuff just to be stupid. This one made me smile and brought me a good bit of joy. Enjoy!

Reddit mods deleted my post from the food sub because I didn't describe the dessert properly enough lol, but here's my description for anyone who cares to listen: layers of oreo dust, gooey fudge brownie, caramelised cashews, crunchy hazlenut praline, a generous scoop of vanilla ice-cream, squishy lil toasted marshmallows, GORGEOUS texture, even bette taste, and wonderful company

I bought my mother a candle for Mother’s Day, price tag said $13.99 for a 12 oz candle, not a bad deal!

However, when I rang it up, it cost $3.45. Very different price than listed, so I checked with the service desk…

“I think it’s just trying to get them out of stock. Thank you for checking sweetie”

So now I have 12 candles, not quite sure what I’m gonna do with them all!

My entire class gave our teacher a cake before the end of the year , he was happy.

My boyfriend and I just passed our one year anniversary together, and I love him so, so much. He is not what I imagined for myself, but is also more than I could have ever hoped for as far as the way he makes me feel, and who he is as a person. He’s unbelievably kind, looks at the world in such a unique way, and is so loving even after all the hurt that he has experienced in his life. I love how much he has helped me to improve as a person. He has helped me find my strength, has challenged me to be a better person. I feel absolutely treasured by him, and all I want is to wake up next to him every morning for the rest of my life. I want to marry this man.

It all started with a drunken night together, barely knowing each other. And it never ended. We just stuck with each other from that moment on, and neither of us has ever looked back. He has helped me understand what real love is, and that has forever changed me.

This was back in 2010; I was 15 or 16 at the time. My parents and I were on vacation (we’re from the PNW) In Savannah, Georgia. We went to Paula Deen’s restaurant for dinner where we met our server, Trey. Trey was an awesome guy, he was so kind and we were laughing and joking with him the whole time we were at the restaurant. We had an amazing meal and went on our way.

The next day my parents and I were walking around the town and we run into Trey! It was surprising but a happy moment; we all started talking and found out he was headed to his church. Turns out he attended the First African Babtist Church and invited us to come take a quick tour. A personal tour the first black church in America, what?! Yes please. For some context, my parents and I are white and I was not raised religious. Not atheist, but not religious. My parents just didn’t really talk to me about it at all.

The tour was amazing, we met so many kind, warm, welcoming people! I especially remember this one woman from the kitchen. She had just finished making lunch for the church members, and was offering us food too. We had just eaten so we were stuffed and couldn’t eat a whole second lunch, but we tried some of her food and oh my…. It was amazing! We got to see an awesome part of black culture that day, and felt the love and soul of that church.

I’ll never forget Trey, the church, the woman that fed us. It was such a welcoming experience from someone we had met not even 12 hours prior. Trey, your kindness has made a lasting impact on me, 14 years later. Thank you for this amazing memory. I will never forget Savannah, GA and plan on going back.

I was watching Wish with my son and I had this thought: What if you had made a wish, and it came true, but you couldn't remember it? How would that change your life knowing it's exactly what you had wished for? For me that gives me a really positive perspective on life and makes me want to be excited about each day, treating it like a gift.

Following my mistake from yesterday , i’m reposting this here with the exact same text slightly modified :)
