=Easter=

In Brazil the pascoa symbolize death and ressurection of de cristo.For me and my family represent a special day that god showed his love for us. is celebrated in 3 april, peoples buy chocolate , eat fish...this year, I ate fish, because my mother cooked, I went to church , I didn't buy chocolate, because this not is the meaning of the pascoa. I like the comunion of peoples and I like see the peoples remember the love the god. I didn't like business. peoples wanted sold every time. = = = = = = = Mother´s day =

On Mother's Day I did something that I don't really like doing: I cleaned the bathroom. Of course, my mother loved it. It was worth it to seeing the joy of my mother. I was an angel all day because she´s very special for me. She cares about me. I wanted to be a better daughter for her,not only on Mother's day. At night we went to church to pray.
