Happy Mother's Day Mommy!

Mommy, I have something I want to say
About the things you give to me everyday

You shower and give me all your love 
So, I give thanks for you to God above

You feed me and clothe me with such great care
And if I need something else, you’re always there

You cover me with love, whenever I’m sad
And when it doesn’t help, you hand me to Dad 

You teach me the things I need to know
Helping me to learn what I need as I grow

I’m sorry Mommy when I’m being bad
And I’m sorry Mommy if it makes you sad 

And if I’m sick, and up all night with fever
You stay with me and don’t sleep either

You say and do things to make me glad
You make me happy and so does Dad

Thank you, Mommy, for the great big hug
Your arms around me is what I love

Thank you, Mommy, in every way 
Thank you, Mommy, on this Mother’s Day!
