"Dear Mum" by Uka

Dear Mum (link)

Author's Note: Being a daughter of a single mother, these days I have many thoughts about her. I look at my mother as not only as my mother, however, as a brave woman who made a challenging choice to raise a child without a husband. Through this letter, I write to her positioning myself in her shoes, recalling the memories of how I was raised and realizing, that my childhood was a rare gift.
