Others say, "I told you so," Except you,
They're always trying to tell me what to do.
You, on the other hand, listen and suggest.
No wonder, of all my friends, you're the best.
Make no mistake; I'm not saying we always agree.
And no friends fight better than we.
Still, you stand by me no matter what,
There to offer a hand whenever I'm in a rut.
You love me unconditionally, like no other.
With all my adoration, I thank you, Mother.
