Happy Birthday to my Mom

Today is my mom's birthday! My mother is a very special woman in every way I can think of. She is so selfless that I know for a fact that I can never be like her.  I also know that God has truly blessed me by giving me a mother like her and by allowing me to experience what it means to be a mother.  She's also an awesome grandmother to my two girls.  I wrote this simple poem for her today.

Happy birthday to my mom

The one who raised me well

The one that gave up on her dreams so that her children may excel

 

Happy birthday to my mom

The one who with my dad left their country, people and all that they considered home

Happy birthday to my mom

And may she with dad in paradise roam

 

Happy birthday to my mom

The one who taught me how to walk, sit, eat, and speak

Happy birthday to my mom

That showed me how to be strong even when I felt weak

 

Happy birthday to my mom

The one who insured that all we ate was homemade

Happy birthday to my mom

The woman who taught me about God as she prayed

 

Happy birthday to my mom

That taught me how to be humble so that God elevates me

Happy birthday to my mom

That showed me that good manners where always the key

 

Happy birthday to my mom

May she be blessed with health, wealth, and happiness for all her life

Happy birthday to my mom

That after all these years proves to be the perfect wife

 

Happy birthday to my mom

That knows the true meaning of being a mother

Happy birthday to my mom

 The best grandma to my girls, she’s truly like no other

 

Happy birthday to my mom

The most selfless woman that I know

Happy birthday to my mom

And may her face on judgment day with light glow

 

Love you always mom!

xoxo,

May
