REAL MOTHERS

 

  • Real Mothers don't eat quiche; they don't have time to make it.

  • Real Mothers know that their kitchen utensils are probably in the sandbox.

  • Real Mothers often have sticky floors, filthy ovens and happy kids.

  • Real Mothers know that dried play-dough doesn't come out of shag carpet.

  • Real Mothers don't want to know what the vacuum just sucked up.

  • Real Mothers sometimes ask "why me?" and get their answer when a little voice says, "because I love you best."

  • Real Mothers know that a child's growth is not measured by height or years or grade. . .It is marked by the progression from Mama to Mommy to Mom... and, sometimes, to Mother.

 


 

 

 

            

           

What Is A Mother

It takes a Mother's Love to make a house a home,

A place to be remembered no matter where we roam...

It takes a Mother's Patience to bring a child up right,

And her Courage and her Cheerfulness to make a dark day bright.

 

It takes a Mother's Thoughtfulness to mend the heart's deep hurts,

And her Skill and her Endurance to mend little socks and shirts...

It takes a Mother's Kindness to forgive us when we err,

To sympathize in trouble and bow her head in prayer...

It takes a Mother's wisdom to recognize our needs

And to give us reassurance by her loving words and deeds...

It takes a Mother's Endless Faith, her Confidence and Trust

To guide us through the pitfalls of selfishness and tests...

And that is why in all this world there not be another

Who could fulfill God's purpose as completely as a Mother!

 


 

"When a Man Loves a Woman"
Percy Sledge

When a man loves a woman
Can't keep his mind on nothing else
He'll trade the world
For the good thing he's found
If she's bad he can't see it
She can do no wrong
Turn his back on his best friend
If he put her down

When a man loves a woman
Spend his very last dime
Trying' to hold on to what he needs
He'd give up all his comfort
Sleep out in the rain
If she said that's the way it ought to be

Well, this man loves a woman
I gave you everything I had
Trying' to hold on to your precious love
Baby, please don't treat me bad

When a man loves a woman
Down deep in his soul
She can bring him such misery
If she plays him for a fool
He's the last one to know
Loving' eyes can't ever see

When a man loves a woman
He can do no wrong
He can never own some other girl
Yes when a man loves a woman
I know exactly how he feels
'Cause baby, baby, baby, you're my world

When a man loves a woman.....
