\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Mother\u2019s Day<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tomorrow is Mother\u2019s Day again.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Once a year we honor them.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

My mother is no longer around.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

She stepped into tomorrow, I found.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

It is an easier way to look at death.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Thank God, \u00a0her memory hasn\u2019t \u00a0faded yet.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

For all with mothers still alive.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Tomorrow, her special day will arrive.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Treat her to a special meal or outing.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Maybe flowers or candy. No pouting.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Tell her you love her because you do.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Without her, you wouldn\u2019t be you.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Being a mother is a very tough job.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

God didn\u2019t want this to be odd.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

He made a woman ready to do the job.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

It is a job that really reflects God.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Not all mothers are loved by their own.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Often, it is not her fault, it is shown.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The cases where a mother has fallen short,<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

there are extenuating circumstances to sort. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Most of us love our mothers with good reason.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

To say we don\u2019t would fall just short of treason.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Our mothers gave their lives to raise us right.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

A mother\u2019s love for their offspring is no respite.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

So do your best to make her proud.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Make your love stand out in the crowd.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

God would do no less for me & you.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Your mother is special. She loves you too.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
