Every Mother Is an Angel

```

Every mother is an angel.

Every father is a camel.

Every brother is a dog.

Every sister is a frog.

Every grandmother-father is indulgence.

Every child is indeed effulgence.

```

“Each word has a meaning, believe it or not. Mothers are angels. Fathers are camels: they carry the burden of the family. And brothers are dogs; they protect and they are the power of the family, faithful. And girls are always like a frog. They are jumping, jumping, jumping, jumping; always they are very dynamic. This side and that side, they do skiing, they do skating, they do skip-rope; everything they do, always. And every grandfather, grandmother, they are always indulgence. And every child is indeed effulgence.”
