HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY...MOM

MOTHERS...
With gentle hands God made the flowers,
Fashioning them with care,
He brushed the sky with pink and gold
Leaving a sunset there;
Beautified the earth with trees;
These works and countless others
But for His greatest masterpiece,
God created mothers.























Yours were the hands that led my way
through the carefree paths of youth,
Yours were the faithful prayers each day
that showed me the way of truth.

Yours were the precious golden hours,
the cherished dreams, the rest
All sacrificed in mother's love
that I might have the best.

No gift I give can ever repay
such love or care so true...
But in my heart I'll always have
the deepest love for each of you!


I really lucked out when my dad married this special lady, Marie. whom we call our 'energizer bunny'. She has a heart filled with love, understanding, wisdom, kindness, and warmth. We love her dearly and so glad to call her 'mom' or as the grandkids call her 'GG'.

UNTIL I WAS A MOTHER
I think I never truly knew
How very much I cared for you
Until I was a mother too;
Nor knew that any love could be
As deep as that you give to me,
A love that gives but does not ask;
That changes every little task
To joy; a love that stays the same,
A steady and enduring flame.
This love I give to her must be
The same love that you give to me;
And gave to me through all my years;
My joy, your joy; my tears, your tears.
Mother, I never truly knew
Until I was a mother too,
Your love for me and mine for you.
