What is a Mother?...
A Mother has so many things to do,
From washing, ironing, cleaning to tying a shoe.
She scrubs, she mends, she cooks and sews,
She bathes the children and washes their clothes.
When they forget to wash their faces clean,
And their clothes are the muddiest you've ever seen,
Who repairs the clothes and scrubs them like new?
Of course, that is what a Mother will do.
Who becomes the doctor or the nurse when they are ill,
Applying a bandage or giving them a pill?
Who becomes a teacher when a child has homework?
A Mother must never her duty shirk.
Who becomes a detective to find a toy or a book?
For missing things she must look and look?
Who becomes a listner to every heartache,
To every accompolishment that a child makes?
Who scolds their children when they are naughty,
Or remind them of God when they are to haughty?
Who tends her family with love and patience, too?
Of course that is what a Mother will do.

There is no love, like a mother's love,
no stronger bond on earth-
like the precious bond that comes from God,
to a mother, when she gives birth.
A mother's love is forever strong,
never changing for all time-
and when her children need her most,
a mother's love will shine.
God bless these special mothers,
God bless them every one-
for all the tears and heartache,
and for the special work they've done.
When her days on earth are over,
a mother's love lives on-
through many generations,
with God's blessings on each one.
Be thankful for our mothers,
for they love with a higher love-.
from the power God has given,
and the strength from up above.
