Que Sera, Sera, Whatever will be, will be The future's not ours, to see Que Sera, Sera What will be, will be. ~~Que Sera Sera ~ Doris Day The best thing about mothers is irrespective of whatever happens in your life, they are always there for you. She is there to celebrate a victory, to scold when you make a mistake, to hug when you are hurt. There have been loads of times my mom and I have not agreed on certain things, people, situations.
