A Mother

A Mother

Who is a Mother and what is a Mother?
A Mother is one who gives birth to a child.
A Mother is one who loves you and holds 
you in her arms.

A Mother is the one who gives you your
first hugs and kisses. A Mother is the one 
that feeds you, when you are hungry and
takes care of you - when you are sick.

A Mother is one that worries about you -
when you come home late. A Mother is 
one that is happy for you - when you 
succed and one that tells you - I love you
when you fail.

Many women can give birth, but not all can be
called Mothers. That is the reason that some are 
very special and this includes you Mother.
Happy Mother's Day....
