Mom, I Appreciate All That You Have Done For Me...
I appreciate the many prayers
you've whispered during
the worst moments in my life,
and the many hopes for my success

and the gentle words
of encouragement
that were meant to strengthen
my quests.
I appreciate the moments of sorrow

I appreciate all you've done --
every word and gesture.
I know you've been the best there is --
a mother beyond all compare.
For all you've done...
thank you, Mom.
For all that you are...
I love you.
Happy Mother's Day
