Mothers' Day

At a maternal request, I am posting a Mothers' Day poem from a week ago.

Mothers' Day 5/9/2010
Happy Mothers' Day to a very special mother!
For how would I turn out today if God had sent another?

And I don't know what I would do
If God had not determined you
To be my mom and help me on the way.
I know that he has placed you here
With extra care so you can steer
My life with care and watch that I don't stray.

And though I don't say "thanks" enough,
And bother you with little stuff,
I hope my love for you is plain to see.
And though you aren't perfect, sure,
I am no mother connoisseur.
You're just the perfect mom that God could give to me.
