A great mom!

Wake up sleepy head, it's time to get ready to go for the day
Don't worry, you've raised kids capable of getting breakfast without too much delay
You make them lunches with love instead of pawning them off on a lunchlady mess
With care, you make sure they even leave the house dressed (...appropriately....usually....)

Throughout the day you clean up the devastation that never ends
Then there's gymnamstics, and girl scouts, and neighborhood friends
Treats to the class, reading books everyone likes,
And who's to buy food, and dresses, and bikes?!?!

Sometimes you have to be both
unwielding and understanding, loving and fair,
the mom AND the dad when dad's not there.
and you do all of this and still make up their hair!

College classes and getting new glasses
Keeping them growing smart, healthy, and fit
If there's something you're missing, I can't find it.

You listen without judging, you really do care
Someone to talk to from no matter where
Yes, roses are red, and violets are blue,
but I don' t know where we'd be without all you do

You truely make our day, you form the bedrock of our family
You never give up, you always give back,
Our hearts are all yours, and yours is all ours,
You're the greatest mom in the world!!!

Love you kiddo,
Happy Mothers Day from a long ways away!
