A special vocation received

as one life is given and

another is forever changed

A truer bond does not exist



Anticipation marks the beginning of this journey

that somehow transcends even death

The relationship between mother and child,

timeless and unending, reaches beyond the farthest stars



Sometimes fraught with trials, tribulation, and fear

Sometimes celebrated in glory, pride, and accomplishment

A mother’s love knows no bounds

A child’s love of mother knows no end



She is the rock upon which foundations are built

and the canvas on which masterpieces are painted

She is the melody that carries each tune

that every child sings in her honor
