MOM







Yesterday my mom and I spent the entire day shopping. I couldn't decide what to do for her upcoming birthday and Mother's Day, so I decided to treat her to a day of shopping. Anyone that knows my mom knows that if I would of given her money or a gift card she would of turned around and spent it on someone else. We had so much fun and little Rylan ran with us all day. He was such a little trooper and is such a good little guy that it made the day even more special. My mom is the most loving and caring person I know. She's always the first to offer a hand, the first to offer a hug and kind words, the first to offer encouragement, the first to say how special someone is, the first person that will be there if you need anything in a drop of a hat. She has always put EVERYONE ELSE'S feelings and needs first and never once asked or expected what's in it for her. She is truly a blessing and I cherish and love her dearly. Sometimes, we as kids get caught up in the day to day busy things in life and forget how important it is to let our loved ones know that we really do appreciate all that they do. Sometimes, I think I try to squeeze so many things into my day that I get anxious to get home to finish the rest of th errands that I forget about the most important people in my life.

Mom, here's a poem that I found that made me think of you. I love you.




A Precious Mother

Mom You've given me so much,
Love from your heart and the warmth of your touch.
The gift of life and you're a friend to me.
We have a very Special Bond which only comes from God...
I'm sure you agree.

As a child I would say Mommy I Love You,
Now you're my Mother so dear
I love you even more with each and every new year.

If I could had chosen, I would have picked no other.
Than for you ... to be my lifelong friend and Precious Mother.
