I feel I am especially blessed because of my lovely girls.
God certainly gave me two of his precious heavenly pearls.
When they were little I was their teacher, counselor, loving parent.
They called me Mama, Mom, Mommy, Mother when they were errant.
Time has flown by; I have not changed roles now they are grown
They know what it is like with beautiful families of their own.
I still answer to the many variations of the name Mother.
Only now we have to add Gram, Nana and Grandmother.
I look back over my life, and marvel at God's generous grace.
For at the sound of their voice and their touch I feel His embrace.
Today is special for they both open their hearts to portray,
God's magnificent love every day but especially on Mother's Day.
