M-O-T-H-E-R
"M" is for the million things she gave me,
"O" means only that she's growing old, When you are a mother, you are never really alone in your thoughts. A mother always has to think twice, once for herself and once for her child. ~Sophia Loren, Women and Beauty ODE TO MOTHERS Mother love is the fuel that enables a normal human being to do the impossible.
A mother understands what a child does not say. ~ Jewish Proverb
"T" is for the tears she shed to save me,
"H" is for her heart of purest gold;
"E" is for her eyes, with love-light shining,
"R" means right, and right she'll always be,
Put them all together, they spell "MOTHER,"
A word that means the world to me.
~Howard Johnson
by Kristin F. McKendall
Mothers cannot do it all
But surely do they try.
Mothers hear the angel's call,
To comfort all who cry.
Mothers for themselves may fall,
For others they will fly.
Mother's bear the weight of all,
For their children, they would die.
A Mother's gift extends beyond
All bounds of time and space.
Her lovingness and nurturing
Make Earth a peaceful place.
~Marion C. Garretty

wtg donna,
Thank you, bigrichard. It's got a boo-boo in there...a big "gap"...and I can't get rid of it. It doesn't look too bad, does it?
It is always and will always be forever the thought.
This was so very well done and so Beautiful!!! Thank you for this wonderful post my friend!!!
I especially liked "Ode to Mothers"

What a great post, Donna! Really shows how we need to celebrate motherhood.
AJ
You're welcome, Jackie. I'm glad that you liked it.
Yeah, I agree. Isn't "Ode to Mothers" beautiful?
Thank you. I tend to think that all women should be honored on Mother's Day because of all the love, caring, nurturing, and mothering they do to a lot of people, not just to their own children. However, the bond between a mother and her child is worthy of every special recognition.
Thanks, AJ. Yes, motherhood should be celebrated. The loving and caring that so many women share with their children and with so many people in unselfish and positive ways should not be taken for granted.
Wow--this so so very nice also---You are the best!!!!!!
Beautiful quotes and pic's.
Angie...you make me blush sometimes! But, thank you...I appreciate your kind words.
