Poem
When I was young my mom, like most women, donned a hat when she went out.
Dad said it added to her beauty…of this I had no doubt.

My mom had a collection of hats she stored in boxes under her bed.
So many different kinds of bonnets that sat atop her head.

Moms of today are different they go out with their heads bare
but one thing they share with Moms of the past are the many hats they wear.

If we tried to count the hats they don...we couldn’t...they go on indefinitely
Perhaps one way to approach it...is alphabetically.

Moms are:
Accountants
Babysitters
Chauffeurs...they do what 
Doctors and 
Electricians do…they are
Farmers 
Governors 
Housekeepers, and 
Ice cream makers too…they are
Janitors 
Kitchen and 
Laundry workers, and 
Maids who clean the floor…they are
Nurses 
Optometrists,
Painters 
Quality control inspectors and furthermore they are
Receptionists 
Seamstresses and 
Teachers…they can
Upholster that sofa or that chair…they are
Valets 
Washroom Attendants and 
X-Ray technicians…ready anytime and anywhere…they are
Yard managers and every Mom I know is also a keeper of the 
Zoo
That’s 26 different hats they wear…
26 different jobs that all Moms do.

Moms are the original and still the best multi-taskers the world has ever met.
In fact, I didn’t run out of hats for them...I ran out of alphabet!

I guess it’s a good thing each job doesn’t have a hat that sits atop Moms head
for there wouldn’t be enough room to store the boxes under their beds.

They are visionaries, they are cheerleaders, so much of our existence they adorn
yet they had no experience as a mother until the day when we were born.

Because it was at that miraculous moment, despite their fearfulness and qualms
when they smiled as they looked at us and realized……’I’m a Mom.’

For that is the hat that encompasses the rest...the hat we call motherhood
and I must admit, from where I stand 
Moms…you make that hat look good.

So Moms, here’s to a wonderful Mother’s Day as this poem bids you all adieu
For all the many hats you wear…
our hats are off to you.

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY
