Yesterday was Mother's Day. The day was very nice. I received a beautiful bouquet of tulips from my husband, and also wildflowers from the yard and homemade cards from each of my kids. I love this years flowers and cards this year better than any other because of the thought and effort put into what was given. Not that the others year's Mother's Day gifts were not thoughtful by any stretch of the imagination, but this year was just special. My husband, who is working out of the state, made sure that I received flowers delivered to me. My kids, who usually rely on Dad to help them buy cards, made me cards from the heart. To me that is extra special. I will share the poem that my son wrote in his card to me:
This is not a singing card,
but it is better than the best.
It would be impossible to offer anything less.
It is better than chocolates,
won't die like flowers.
It symbolizes your love!
Oh, how it towers!
Your love is like a rock,
never changing, never ceasing.
Even in all the perils of life,
within all it's madness,
you love me, and I love you, MOM!
Isn't that sweet? My daughter does not like people reading her stuff so I will not share that but her artwork is beautiful and what she wrote was very sweet too!
I am blessed!
Love the poem and the kids' artwork, and more than that, I appreciate the effort they made to share something special with their wonderful mom!
