Have a Beautiful Day....You are in my "thoughts" & "prayers"

A mother is someone to shelter and guide us,
To love us, whatever we do,
With a warm understanding and infinite patience,
And wonderful gentleness, too.

How often a mother means swift reassurance
In soothing our small, childish fears,
How tenderly mothers watch over their children
And treasure them all through the years.

The hearth of a mother is full of forgiveness
For any mistake, big or small,
And generous always in helping her family
Whose needs she has placed above all.

A mother can utter a word of compassion
And make all our cares fall away,
She can brighten a home with the sound of her laughter
And make life delightful and gay.

A mother possesses incredible wisdom
And wonderful insight and skill-
In each human heart is that one special corner
Which only a mother can fill!

To all my favorite moms and women who have moms or who miss (but will always love) their moms …           A Newborn's Conversation with God       A baby asked God, "They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow,   but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?"     God said, "Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you."     The child further inquired, "But tell me, here in heaven I don't have   to do anything but sing and smile to be happy."     God said, "Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you.   And you will feel your angel's love and be very happy."     Again the small child asked, "And how am I going to be able to understand   when people talk to me if I don't know the language?"     God said, "Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words   you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will   teach you how to speak."     "And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?"     God said, "Your angel will place your hands together and will teach   you how to pray."     "Who will protect me?"     God said, "Your angel will defend you even if it means risking its life."     "But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore."     God said, "Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach   you the way to come back to Me, even though I will always be next to you."     At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from Earth   could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, "God, if I am to leave   now, please tell me my angel's name."     God said, You will simply call her, "Mom."
