Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mothers Day to all the mom's in my life!



It takes a Mother's Love to make a house a home,

A place to be remembered,no matter where we roam.

It takes a Mother's Patience,to bring a child up right,

And her Courage and her Cheerfulnessto make a dark day bright.

It takes a Mother's Thoughtfulness to mend the heart's deep "hurts,

And her Skill and her Endurance to mend little socks and shirts.

It takes a Mother's Kindness to forgive us when we err,

To sympathize in trouble and bow her head in prayer.

It takes a Mother's Wisdom to recognize our needs

And to give us reassurance by her loving words and deeds.

It takes a Mother's Endless Faith, her Confidence and Trust

To guide us through the pitfalls of selfishness and lust.

And that is why in all this world there could not be another

Who could fulfill God's purpose as completely as a MOTHER!
