Mother, Oh How I Love You

Mother, oh how                                             I love you. You 
                  make me smile, when I                                   am down. You make 
               all the grey skies turn blue.                             You make me soup when
           I am sick. We have our special                         “mother daughter days” that 
       neither of us can share with anyone                 but us. You’ve helped me survive 
    in a house full of boys. You’ve helped me through the hard times that being a teenager 
      brings. And I’m sure that helpful hand won’t stop, Until it is unneeded. And I have a
       feeling that will not be for a very long time. For I will always need your kind touch,
         your loving kiss, your warm hug, and your gentle voice. I will always need your
             inspiring stories of your life and the things you’ve done. Of your very own
                 spiritual journey. Of the friends you’ve made a long the way. Of the 
                    many places you’ve been, and the people you’ve helped. Mom,
                      you are my best friend, my guardian angel, my comedian
                         when I need a laugh, my shoulder when I need to cry.
                           If there was only one person I could share my life
                             With, my experiences with, my every second
                               with, it would be you mom. I will always
                                 turn to you for words of wisdom when 
                                  I am in need. I will always keep my
                                     arms wide open, just waiting for
                                       the next warm hug from you.
                                         Mom I love you with all
                                           my heart, and I hope
                                              you never forget
                                                 it. You mean
                                                   the world
                                                     to me.
                                                       

** So this was my attempt at making a heart, I know it's kind of hard to tell, but it's the best 
I could do. **
