Default Happy Mother's Day, 2009!

Happy Mother's Day, 2009!

Motherhood
by Helen Steiner Rice


The dearest gifts that heaven holds,
The very finest, too,
Were made into one pattern
That was perfect, sweet, and true;
The Angels smiled, well-pleased, and said:
"Compared to all the others,
This pattern is so wonderful
Let's use it just for Mothers!"
And through the years, a Mother
Has been all that's sweet and good
For there's one bit of God and love,
In all true Motherhood.




A Hundred Years From Now


....it will not matter what my
bank account was, the sort of
house I lived in or the kind of
car I drove

.....but the world may be
different because I was
important in the life of a
CHILD




Star Mother-In-Law


Some mother-in-laws are possessive;
Their child they still want to own.
My mother-in-law’s love is like sunlight;
On both of us it shone.


Some mother-in-laws put you down;
They think you’re not good enough.
My mother-in-law shows approval,
Affection, and other good stuff.


Some mother-in-laws interfere;

They think that they know best.
My mother-in-law lets us be;
She’s better than the rest.


And so I just want to thank you
For being who you are;
You’ve made everything so easy;
As a mother-in-law, you’re a star!

Step Mother Poem


I’m so blessed that you’re my stepmom;
Let me tell you how I feel:
The deep affection I have for you
Is honest, true and real.


On Mother’s Day, I’m really glad
I’m able to convey
How glad I am you’re in my life;
Happy Mother’s Day!


By Joanna Fuchs



What are your Mother's Day plans?
