There’s no doubt that mothers go above and beyond for their children. The cost of a mother’s love is priceless and this video illustrates that point perfectly.
Just watch as a young boy named James walks up to his mom with a piece of paper in hand. He hands her the note and she reads a list of all the things he did this week and priced them accordingly. From the look on her face, you can tell that this mother was shocked. All of the chores and tasks on his list came to a total of $10.45 and that’s what he was asking from her. After she read the list, she folded it back in half. Then, she sat down right next to him, grabs his blue crayon, and started to make a list of her own.
This mommy’s list included when she carried him as a baby in her tummy for nine months and when she stayed up all night with him when he was sick. She included the toys she purchased for him, and even the night she cried over him. But unlike his list, next to every item she wrote, she let him know that there was no charge.
Finally, James realizes all of the things she did for him was out of genuine love. He gives her a big hug and tells her that he loves him. Then he grabbed his crayon and wrote, “Paid in full” on his paper. This is such a sweet reminder that the most important things in life are priceless.
