Thank You....For Mothers Everywhere When I read between the lines Time has laid upon your face I can see a tough life That only time can erase You've been there for me From the very first day All the love you've given I could never, ever repay So I send to you a thank you For this life you've truly blessed To let you know I love you And Mom you are the best I lie awake in a world filled with dreams, but dreams can be so real when you don't know you're asleep |

Moms sure are special and a little thank you from time to time sure is nice. You're a real sweetie! take care, amy p.s. no im not a mom YET ~Live today as though it were your last but prepare for tomorrow as though it were here~ |

Jeffrey, A wonderful poem and just in time. We may all be printing this. Lori ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean. Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens. Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance. And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance - I hope you dance. song by LeeAnn Womack ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |

Your mother is a lucky lady also Jeffery ... my mother would do backflips if my brother ever wrote a poem! This is a wonderful tribute to her ... Best wishes, /Kit |
