Mom

Mom you are the
world to me
You are my shining
star, the twinkle in
my heart
You make my world
brighter and more
wonderful
Your love outshines
the  brightest of
stars
Your generous and
loving heart
Not only shines for
me but for everyone
Your heart
encompasses the
earth. 
If I had to be
someone I want to be
someone like you

5/11/12
And I thank God that
He gave me you.
