I was young and undeserving
I was selfish and inconsiderate
Yet God gave me your hugs
You are proof of God’s mercy

I thought I couldn’t handle it
I knew I wasn’t qualified
Yet God gave me your smile
You are proof of God’s patience

I have lost my temper at times
I have denied many of your wants
Yet God gave me your love
You are proof of God’s endurance

With all my mistakes
And all my sins
God gave me you
You are proof of God’s love

In world without heroes
You are proof there is God

May God bless you my child
The way he has blessed me

This is such a beautiful expression of a loving mother who recognizes her child as a blessing. Motherhood should only be bestowed on those who feel unworthy of the gift and do their superhuman best to do it right.
