HERE'S TO THE MOTHERS...

A special day is upon us - devoted to all 'Mothers' and I want to share something my daughter gave me several years ago ......

THANK YOU
Thank you for stocking me up with poems and tunes to last me all my life.
Thank you for showing me the setting sun for the first time.
And scrunching down winter beaches.
Thank you for letting me bring home rocks and shells and fallen branches.
Thank you for housing my frogs..
Thank you for the excitement of being alive.
Thanks for never saying, "I told you so."
Well -- not often.
Thank you for always being there.
Not intrusively. Not demandingly.
There.
Availavle at all hours for advice on coughs, spelling, good books, stains, Mozart, friends, presents, using librairies, crossword
clues.
Et al.
Packed and ready to come if needed.
At once.
Shoulder to cry on.
Someone to tell the news.
Someone to laugh at the Funny.
Someone with an inexhaustible supply of love.
Whatever I've done.
Always.

I treasure these words, and I'm sure you all have similar stories .
HERE'S TO US - MOTHERS OF THE WORLD!!!
