Dearest Mama~
We just wanted to tell you just how much we love and care for you. We are honored that you picked us to be your kids, and we are honored to have you as a mother and friend. You take care of us when we are sick or when we are well, and you cook us delicious, mouth-watering meals, and you clean up our messes or deal with our fights--and don't complain one bit. You put up with our shenanigans, and you show us unconditional love in the smallest of ways.
You went out of your way to make sure that we all had a loving family to call our own, and a home to live in, and you make life fun for us. You teach us right from wrong, and you teach us what it means to be successful in a world not geared for our disabilities, and you have taught us that eve though we ARE disabled, we can do all things, and you have shown us what it means to love and BE loved. You also have shown us faith in God, and you make sure that we go to church every week.
We don't know what we have done to deserve a mom like you, or a dad like Bill, but we are awfully glad to be a part of your "Rainbow Family", and we are glad to have loving, caring parents like you both. Too many kids don't have it NEARLY as good as we do, and we thank God each and every day for you. Thank you, Mama, for loving us in your own special way! God bless you, and may you have the bestest Mother's Day EVER!! We have a lot of things planned for you tomorrow, so be prepared to get DAZZLED!
(((HUGS)) and much love, your 52 (Fifty-Two) Rugrats,
How can the mom not love this? From the heart full of love and gratitude. Well done as usual, Karen. Merci. Amour et paix à toi. Ton ami de la C-B, Canada. Régis
