My daughter sent this to me and I think it's worth sharing.
MOTHERS
>>Real Mothers don't eat quiche;
>>They don't have time to make it.
>>Real Mothers know that their kitchen utensils
>>Are probably in the sandbox.
>>Real Mothers often have sticky floors,
>>Filthy ovens and happy kids.
>>Real Mothers know that dried 'play dough'
>>Doesn't come out of carpets.
>>Real Mothers don't want to know 'what'
>>The vacuum just sucked up...
>>Real Mothers sometimes ask 'Why me?'
>>And get their answer when a little
>>Voice says, 'Because I love you best.'
>>Real Mothers know that a child's growth
>>Is not measured by height or years or grade...
>>It is marked by the progression of Mommy to Mom to Mother.....
The Images of Mother
4 YEARS OF AGE - "My Mommy can do anything"!
8 YEARS OF AGE - "My Mom knows a lot! A whole lot"!
12 YEARS OF AGE - "My Mother doesn’t know everything"!
14 YEARS OF AGE - "My Mother? She wouldn’t have a clue".
16 YEARS OF AGE - "Mother? She's so~ five minutes ago".
18 YEARS OF AGE - "That old woman? She's way out of date"!
25 YEARS OF AGE - "Well, she might know a little bit about it"!
35 YEARS OF AGE - "Before we decide, let's get Mom's opinion".
45 YEARS OF AGE - "Wonder what Mom would have thought about it"?
65 YEARS OF AGE - "Wish I could talk it over with Mom".
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure she carries,
or the way she combs her hair.
The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes,
Because that is the doorway to her heart,
The place where love resides.
The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole,
But true beauty in a woman is reflected in her 'soul'.
It is the 'caring' that she lovingly gives, the passion that she
Shows, and the beauty of a woman with passing years only grows!
