I admire my father most because I have seen his sacrifices for our family since we were still young. Its not that I don't admire my mother because we were still very very young (I was four) when our mother died. He's the one who took care for us. He's great. Maybe I just didn't see and live with my mother that's why I can't say anything about her. I just thank her for being an instrument of God for me to be here on earth today. How about you, do you greater admiration to your father more than your mother? is it vise versa?

I say I admire them both. Actually I can't compare them side by side because they have different roles in my life. I admire my father because of his sacrifices for us, he works hard seven days a week just to provide us with the things we need. He also gives me advices on how to become practical in life. I also admire my mother because of her sacrifices also. She wakes up every morning to prepare us food, ask as what we need and find way to give them to us. Being a father and a mother is not easy, it is also a full time job, so for me I really admire them both for that.

I admired them both.Honestly I am much closer to my mother but it doesn't affect my admiration for my father and my mother. I love them both,they are responsible and loving parents. I can say that we are belong to the low class living but my parents still doing their best just to give our daily needs and to send us in school. They're great right?

I will have to say my Mom. Dad passed away with colon cancer and throughout it all she stuck right by Dad's side. He told her one day that she needed to get out and have some fun. She told him that when he was gone she would have time for that and that she loved him and wanted to spend her time with him. It is a beautiful testimony to the love of two people for each other. She wasn't just there she took care of him. There were a lot of things during that time that were hard on Mom but she hung in there and kept watch over as she put it her one and only love. He passed away twenty years ago and she never remarried. She is a happy women and always has a smile on her face and remembers Dad with Love in her heart. A icom of a women.
