To My Beautiful Mother
You are amazing. You have done so much and continue to do so much. You have the biggest heart I have ever known and have the patience of a saint. You love without bounds. Your love is patient, your love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. Your love is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, and it keeps no record of wrongs. Your love does not delight in evil, but rejoices in truth. Your love always protects, always trusts, always perseveres, and always hopes.
You are the picture of scriptural love. You loved daddy even when he did not deserve it. When I look back I no longer see how he acted; instead I see how you loved. When I look back I no longer feel bitter, but instead I feel grateful. I feel overjoyed because you modeled love so perfectly. Thank you.
You love me without restraint. You have always been my rock and my shoulder. You’ve always been my best friend and the first person I turn to in times of joy and times of trouble. Your encompassing love has helped me grow into the woman I am today. Your love helps me to love. It helps me strive to love others like you love me, and like God loves the world.
I love you Mama
Thank you.
