Mother's Love

mom, you fill my life with hope, you fill my life with joy, you fill my life with all the things, you knew that I would need. before I could crawl, walk or stand, you were always there, lending me a hand. before I could speak, and all I did was cry, you knew the thigs that would make the tears die. you changed the dirty diapers, and gave me my baths, you dressed me in cute clothing, and rocked me to sleep. as i got older, you tought me right from wrong, you delt with my hot temper, and my fits of rage. you were always with me, whenever I needed you. on my first day of school, when I wouldn't leave your side. you were sure to be there, until the tears dried. and of course I got older, and passed the crying stage. and many years later, when I was independent, you were still there for me, if I happened to need you. and on the most frightful day of my whole life, you were there with me, crying by my side. when the doctor told us, that I was terribly sick. you rushed me to the hospital, without a second thought. as the news was delivered, you held my trembling hand, you guided me through the shots, and all the mental pain. you delt with all the sorrow, the anger and heartache. you held your chin up high, so that I to could be brave. and even now you help, and guide me along. and that is why you, are an extra special mom.
