they were tears of joy and love.Lv: Vakars bija beidzies, un lietus arī.En: The evening came to an end, and so did the rain.Lv: Cepti mākoņi devās projām, un mēness sāka spīdēt virs Jūrmalas.En: The clouds departed, and the moon began to shine over Jūrmalas.Lv: Rūdis saprata, ka ne jūras smiltis, ne pludmale nebija nepieciešamas, lai padarītu šo dienu neaizmirstamu.En: Rūdis realized that neither the sea sands nor the beach were necessary to make this day unforgettable.Lv: Bija nepieciešama tikai viņu klātbūtne vienam otram.En: All that was needed was their presence for each other.Lv: Maija, apskatoties ap viņu ģimeni, smaidīja un sacīja: "Vislabākā Mātes diena kāda vien bijusi.En: Maija, looking around at her family, smiled and said: "The best Mother's Day ever."Lv: " Un Rūdis beidzot saprata, ka laimīga ģimene ir tas viss, kas patiesībā ir vajadzīgs.En: And Rūdis finally understood that a happy family is all that truly matters.
