A parent would do anything to make their child's life happier and more serene; a mother and a father only want the best for their offspring and for this reason they would climb even the most inaccessible mountain or even forge documents to raise a smile from their child, or to make their dream come true. The hard work of a parent to ensure that nothing is ever missing from the table or that the boy or girl can afford adequate schooling must always be celebrated.

A bit like Diana decided to do: this Mexican girl, once she turned 15 (a particularly heartfelt and celebrated age in the Central American country) wanted to make an extraordinary surprise for her father Jorge, an ecological operator who works at a landfill. A hard and rather humble job, but one that Diana will never stop celebrating and respecting; after all, it's only thanks to what her father does that she has been able to lead a "comfortable" life like that of her peers, it is thanks to her father's humble job that all this has been possible.

For this reason, Diana decided to thank her father Jorge in her own way, giving him a very moving surprise: to celebrate her 15 birthday, the Mexican girl wore the traditional elegant "quinceanera" dress, all in lilac with hand a bouquet of flowers and an elaborate princess style hairstyle. When the father saw that his daughter had arrived at the landfill in that dress, he burst into tears of emotion...

Diana said: "I am not ashamed of the humble work he does, he worked so that I didn't want for anything, I am proud of him, of my family and of who I am!"

And just to say thanks to her father and the hard work he does every day to make sure his daughter lacks for nothing, Diana chose to do a photo shoot beside Jorge and at the landfill where he worked: the girl could not be more proud of her father, it didn't matter that his work could be considered humble!

And the photographs taken of Diana next to her proud father, speak more than a thousand words:

This girl's gesture is truly moving and reminds us once again how the hard daily sacrifice of our parents should never be underestimated, nor mocked: everything they have done, even the humblest thing, they have done for our well-being and for the future of their children, let's never forget it!
