My mother is the greatest woman walking this Earth. I write those words not because I came from her womb, but because of the unselfish and caring way she lives her life. My mother doesn’t judge anyone or discriminate against anyone. If she doesn’t have a favorable opinion of someone, more often than not, something is amiss with that person. Not only that, she is also my therapist and my best friend. At times in my life I have been not so good a person. But even in those periods, she supported me and stood beside me. That support and prayer helped me along this eventful journey called life. I know a lot of folks don’t have the gift of a mother in their lives. By the grace of God, I do. And I thank my creator every day.
Mother’s Day is a day that we acknowledge our mothers for being wonderful. It only comes once a year. And some people think that if they buy their mother flowers and a card that they have completed their duty for the rest of the year. But if we understood just a portion of what our mothers did for us as children, how they would literally die for us if needed, then we would realize that one day is not enough. Mother’s Day should be a time to remind us that we have wonderful mothers that love us dearly. That relationship between a mother and a child is sacred. Please, let us honor our mothers. They are God’s most compassionate and most selfless creations. We can never thank our mothers enough for all that they have done for us: being in labor, giving birth, all sorts of pain, waking up in the wee hours of the morning, preparing food, getting us ready for school, and getting us ready for life… Mothers are the backbone on which we stand strong and successful today. They sacrifice everything just so that one child may become successful one day. So please, when that day comes, show your mothers or motherly figures that you appreciate them and love them to the ends of the earth. Make sure that when that day is here they will never forget that they mean so much to you. In closing, I would like to wish all the mothers a happy Mother’s Day. Thank you.
Raising four children is both challenging and rewarding. (Did I mention exhausting?) First, you must decide what is appropriate and what is inappropriate for them. That decision often depends on your child’s age. For example, you would not have your 2-year-old sitting around adults all day, every day, or always hanging around adults watching their activities. Children need their space and their friends until they can distinguish their own path. Parents need to spend a lot of time with their children and help them discover the world of children. Sometimes we have to forgo our own events and activities to raise healthy and productive children. But once the child is old enough to think independently, the parents regain some freedom and mobility. They may even get a small piece of their lives back!
My mom was Ms. Vivian Elaine Johnson She was very dear to me And I wish you could see I wish I could write her a letter: Dear Mom Thank you for drying my tears when I cried Thank you for food on the table and shelter to hide.
