M-O-T-H-E-R

M-O-T-H-E-R

“M” is for all the material things she gave me
“O” means only she sees the real me
“T” is for tears she shed
“H” is for heartfelt words in time of need
“E” is for her emerald eyes, filled with love so indestructible;
“R” is for her remarkable perseverance when the going gets tough
Put them all together; it spells 
‘MOTHER’
A job that has so much devotion, and evolvement is the hardest jobs of them all.
