My Mom
by
h. lena jones
Mom has been my role model for years
What an amazing role model too
Although she had seven to mind
She always found time for everything
Mom was a hairdresser for combing out knots
An interior decorator for fixing the house
A nurse for patching scraped knees
A doctor to administer medicines and enemas
She was a teacher and a playmate, too
A lawyer when toys needed sorting
An Electrician when the iron wouldn’t work
A seamstress when we needed clothing
A dentist when a shaky baby tooth needed extracting
Chief cook and head waitress as well
A pianist at home and at church
She is dead clever at decorating wedding cakes
At Christmas time she was Dad’s helper
When painting the house
But the title I like best of all is
Mom, my Mom!
Now 83, she’s slowed down a bit
Her new titles are chief gardener
And care-giver for Dad
Plus Granny and Great Grandma to many!
Thank you, Mom
For being my Mom
Lots of love to you from me
God Bless!
Thank you, Heavenly Father
For giving me to Mom!

I read a poem once where in Heaven the angels were creating the attributes of the persons to be sent to earth :) some what a story. But when they came to one of them asking this creation is very odd Lord it has a wetness dripping down its cheeck broken so we will remove God said no not a reject creature this one is most like me unconditional in service, love the tear of wetness is why I call this one MOTHER>>>>>>>>>You were blessed with a special mother.
