Happy Mother's Day

My Mother is a special gift,
A special gift
that God gave to me.
I’d be lost and lonely without her,
If God took her away you see.
I love her so very much,
That I couldn’t bear to live without her healing touch.
Thank-you God for giving me such a loving Mother,
For I wouldn’t want to be a part of no other.

Happy Mother's Day 2016

Yet another Mother's Day is upon us and as I reflect on my own motherhood my thoughts naturally go to my own mother. My heart swells with joy as to how she is always the wing beneath my wings. Even during those turbulent years of raising me.

My mother may not have liked my choices or behavior at times, but what always remained was her steadfast unconditional love. For a mother to state her disappointment in bad choices and behavior is not saying she doesn't love you, it's saying she doesn't approve. First and foremost a mother's job is in guidance and love, not being your best friend while she is raising you. That hopefully comes later in your adulthood.

I often talk to my girlfriends that we either repel or absorb our upbringing. For me, I'm glad I am the later!

Thank you mom (Lorraine) for teaching me unconditional love and I know it reflects in how I am raising my own daughters.

Wishing all the mother's out there I very happy Mother's Day and if you are without your own mother, my thoughts and prayers go out to you.

God Bless!

Happy Mother's Day

To my mother, Lorraine, who has been the wind beneath my wings from day one...

A Mother's Prayer For You
~Anon

I said a Mother's Day prayer for you
to thank the Lord above
for blessing me with a lifetime
of your tenderhearted love.
I thanked God for the caring
you've shown me through the years,
for the closeness we've enjoyed
in time of laughter and of tears.
And so, I thank you from the heart
for all you've done for me
and I bless the Lord for giving me

the best mother there could be!

Happy Mother's Day

I am proud to say without the influence from my mom for over 43 years I would not be the woman I am today. As the saying goes “the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree” and I am happy to say this is the outcome of my relationship with my mom.

Thank you mom, for all you were in my childhood, young adulthood, and what you are now in my adult life. You taught me love, forgiveness, understanding, humility, and to reach my full potential no matter the obstacles thrown my way. You are the brightness in my darkness. God bless.


Wishing you all a Blessed Mother's Day!
