SOMETHING SPECIAL
This year I wanted to do something special for my Mother. I sat down last week and tried as hard as I could to do something "Creative" for her as an unusual gift for her. Anyone who knows me will also find it hard to believe that I could have a "Serious" thought and not be looking for a laugh. I want to tell you that I almost hurt myself trying to focus on being "Serious Frame of Mind"!
I want to show you what I did for my Mother, in honor of Mother's Day 2008. Please don't Laugh! You can't blame a guy for trying!!!
“There’s No One Like Mom”
Tonight I sit with pen in hand,
To think of one who is most grand,
She brought me to this world so fair,
A child like me she said was Rare,
When she first saw my big brown eyes,
‘Twas only then she did realize,
Unlike all others I would be,
Unique for all the world to see,
She saw me crawl, to walk, then run,
For all these years I’ve had such fun,
She taught me how to run and play,
Bringing me joy along life’s way,
Sometimes I’d win; sometimes I’d lose,
She’d always help me then to choose,
She taught me about my God Above,
I’d choose to live, to laugh and love,
To live for Him, my life my all,
No matter if the rest should fall,
So many things as I grow old,
His precious Word, to have, to hold,
To watch me grow she did not dread,
That coming day when my wings I’d spread,
She lifted me up where I did land,
And healed my wounds with tender hand,
Life tells me of a debt to thee,
For this one who cared unselfishly,
Her eyes, her heart could always see,
The man that I would one day be,
So today we place high on a stand,
And celebrate throughout our land,
With thanks for all that you have done,
Forever with love we’ll call you… “Mom”.

To My Mom and to your's I hope this year all of us will be a little more attentive to letting her know just what she really means to us.
Happy Mother's Day 2008
