Thank you for becoming our mother


No. 841 The story introduced this time

Here, we feature stories that have become topics on the internet or in the news, along with videos uploaded to YouTube and other platforms, as "heartwarming stories that will bring you to tears."

The story introduced this time is a post by a woman who married a divorced man, detailing how she took in his three children after his ex-wife and her mother passed away in the Great East Japan Earthquake, leaving the children to live with their mother's family.

There was a video based on this story, so I will introduce it as well.

Regarding the posting date

Source,SourceI confirmed the post date as February 21, 2013, from what is posted on the site, but I apologize if it is incorrect.


Post content

I will post it including the responses.
The woman's post is in bold.

First, my husband is 8 years older than me and divorced.

He has 3 children (currently 2nd grade, 1st grade, and middle year of kindergarten) and pays child support while the ex-wife raises them.

When I was 19, I found out my mother had six months to live, so I married my husband.
(There are various things here, but I will skip them.)

Two years later, at 21, I gave birth to a boy.

When my son was 3 months old, 3.11 happened.

We live in Kansai, so there was no damage at all, but it seems my husband's ex-wife's parents' home in Tohoku was hit by the disaster.

To conclude, the ex-wife and her mother passed away, leaving the 3 children behind.

I received a call from my husband's former father-in-law, and we decided to take the children in.

It was quite a chaotic scene until they arrived here.

With a nursing baby for the first time, I had no parents' home to turn to, and my husband's parents' home was already crowded with his older brother's family and a disabled uncle, so it was truly a chaotic scene.

At 21, suddenly raising 4 children, and becoming a mother to children who had just lost their mother and grandmother.

I think it was even more of a chaotic scene for the children, who had to live in an unfamiliar land with a father they barely remembered, a woman they didn't know, and her child.

To be continued

But they are all such good children that we have managed to make it to today.

It will be two years soon since the children came.

Last week, on my birthday, the children wrote me a letter.

"Thank you for becoming our mother,

Thank you for always making delicious meals,

Thank you for Mom's prayers,

I love you, □□-chan"

they said.

I cry every day looking at this letter and the portraits they drew.

It will be even harder from here on, but I will do my best.

I feel relieved after writing this, so I think I can sleep well tonight.

Sorry for the long post.

Good work.
I think there will be difficult times like the rebellious phase when they get older, but
please do your best, believing that the letter is the children's true feelings.

I cried.
You are doing your best.

I pray for the happiness of your entire family and
for the repose of the souls of those who passed away.

You are a good mother to be able to write about the children's feelings.

Thank you all for your warm responses.

I am grateful every day that it is thanks to the children working even harder than I am.

I am happy now to the point where I can think that it was a chaotic scene back then.

Also, I have added some fakes to the numbers.

I don't usually get such warm words from people around me, so I am truly happy.

Thank you.

The ex-wife's father must have been in a painful position too.
Losing his wife and daughter, and letting go of his three precious grandchildren to a distant place.
He probably wanted to raise them himself if he could, but various things must have made it impossible.


Video

There was a video made based on this story, so I will introduce it.
