For Mother's Day I wanted to share a childhood memory 🌼 I feel very silly thinking back to the moment while knowing I would have been much too embarrassed to ask my parents. Thank you for being there 💐 Kiitos äiti, hyvää äitienpäivää ☀️ #comic #sarjakuva #mothersday #äitienpäivä

Comic about a childhood memory, in the first 4 panels there is a small girls telling how she worries if she is too big to receive the usual goodnight kiss from her parents. She waits anxiously, watching the crack of light from under her room's door that finally opens.
