What a nice idea! My mother has been gone since 1960 so I envy you still having your mother.
Here's a poem my kids gave me in a card:
Cherished Mother
Every day since I was born,
My mother cared for me.
Now that’s a lot of caring,
As anyone can see.
Please, Lord, protect my mother,
And keep her safe from harm,
For she is a cherished person,
With great wisdom, love and charm.
Lord, it’s my mother’s birthday
So please, help her to see
How much she means to us,
Her loving family.
