happy mother's day

Happy Mother's Day dear friends! I hope that your enduring nurturing and your selfless care and love were returned in kind today and openly received by you.  May we all grow to love ourselves as deeply as we love others.

My son's words touched me deeply today. He made me cry. Read and see why!   :)

mom

people who sing my praises may not realize
all that I am is a reflection of you
they think I am a special one, but I am truly a product of two

creating me and what I am today has been a journey of 17 years
your support and wisdom have been invaluable
thank you for the endless love, willingness to help, and mindset that is malleable
the moments we have spent together I will forever hold dear

but this isn't about me, it's your day!

mom, I believe you can face any and all of your fears
you have so much to give with your caring heart, creative mind, and listening ears
if life turns you around and kicks you in the rear
you can just come back in a higher gear

do not be afraid, bring these fears near
then you can face them-
you're ready to make them disappear

I know in my heart that you will do more great things,
as you have done countless already
so now it is time to see what life brings,
be true to yourself, use your gifts, and you will find happiness that is steady.

I love you mother
