Happy Mother's Day
Mom....
So many times I think.."you know, I should call my Mom"
And then the day gets away, and I get caught up in my own world,
my own daily grind, and don't call, and before I know it,
weeks have slipped by without hearing Your voice.
Yet, when I stop and think, I know, I just can't imagine, can't remember
a time when You haven't been there for me.
Loving, nurturing, caring, teaching, helping, holding my hand through so much,
and I don't want to imagine a day when it wouldn't be that way.
It seems we all think of our Moms, on one special day each year...
when really
we should all think of One Special Mom every day of the year..
and maybe it doesn't always show, but I do...
I just want to take this time to thank You..
For each and every thing, though God knows, I don't know how...
Except to tell You, that I love You...
and that EVERY day, I think about You, and smile about You
and make choices in life,
based on the foundation You laid for me to build on.
So, even if the phone isn't ringing, my heart is calling you...
every day...
Just to say, "Hi Mom, I love you"
and my heart hears, so strong and clear, no matter where I am,
or where You are...
your sweet voice saying... "I love You too"
