I just want to say thank you.

The water of her womb, your first home.
The body she pulled apart to welcome you to the world.
The spirit in you she helped grow with all she knew.
The heart that she gave you when yours fell apart.
You are her soft miracle.
So she gave you her eyes to see the best in the worst.
You carry yourmotherin your eyes.
Make her proud of all she watches you do.
 

14. A friend so dear to my heart,
    All my life you have always been there,
    An everlasting source of joy,
    You have been the guiding light in my world,
    Always taught me to be kind,
    And to never give up,
    You filled my life with so much love,
    And to the woman I have grown to love,
    I just want to say.
    Happy Mother’s Day

16. “Mother’s Love” by Calvin M Lake

A Mother’s love, a Mother’s care,
A Mother’s sigh, a Mother’s prayer
A Mother’s work, and Mother’s day,
Leaves little time for any play.
A Godly Mother with Godly love,
Is treasure from God above,
A Godly Mother with Godly care,
Has God’s help when she sighs a prayer.

17. My very first love,
    The one person who has always been there for me through every step,
    My number one fan,
    My guardian angel,
    My flesh and blood,
    On this special day wecelebrate mothersall over the world,
    I am lucky to have the world’s greatestmom.

18. “Never Enough” by Reanna Elmeida

Sometimes I know the words to say to give thanks for all you've done,
But then they fly up and away as quickly as they come.
How could I possibly thank you enough,
The one who makes me whole,
The one to whom I owe my life, the forming of my soul.
The one who tucked me in at night,
The one who stopped my crying,
The one who was the expert at picking up when I was lying.

19. We laugh, we cry, we make time fly...
    We are best friends, mymomand I.
