HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!


"A MOTHER"


Who could endure nine long months
of waiting
and wondering
and wishing
and praying
for a healthy newborn?
. . . Only a mother.

Who could trample the floor
for countless days and nights
caring for a helpless child,
then, lovingly cast a kiss
on that same little innocent face?
. . . Only a mother.

Who could cook and clean,
walk around the neighborhood,
run errands,
and talk on the phone,
with a spoiled brat hanging on her hip?
. . . Only a mother.

Who could calm the storms
that rage the heart and the home
when little ones mature into big ones
and leave the love nest,
causing all that was once near and dear
to drift into a whole new meaning of despair?
. . . Only a mother.
-

Who could love through the best of times
and through the worst of times;
through thick and thin;
through heartache and pain;
through sunshine and rain?
. . . ONLY A MOTHER.



HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY


WHO CAN FIND
A VIRTUOUS WOMAN?

FOR HER PRICE IS
FAR ABOVE RUBIES...

STRENGTH AND HONOUR
ARE HER CLOTHING;


AND SHE SHALL REJOICE
IN TIME TO COME.



SHE OPENETH HER MOUTH WITH WISDOM;
AND IN HER TONGUE IS THE LAW OF KINDNESS.

SHE LOOKETH WELL TO THE WAYS OF HER HOUSEHOLD,
AND EATETH NOT THE BREAD OF IDLENESS.

HER CHILDREN ARISE UP, AND CALL HER BLESSED;
HER HUSBAND ALSO, AND HE PRAISETH HER.

MANY DAUGHTERS HAVE DONE VIRTUOUSLY,
BUT THOU EXCELLEST THEM ALL.

FAVOUR IS DECEITFUL, AND BEAUTY IS VAIN:
BUT A WOMAN THAT FEARETH THE LORD,
SHE SHALL BE PRAISED. . .
