It doesn't take much to make me happy! A hug, conversation, and if you want to go extreme, unsweetened ice tea! But I have a list of things I don't want for Mother's day:
1.) I don't want to be away from my husband and children!
The things that allow me to celebrate such a wonderful gift as motherhood are just what I want to surround myself with on such a day! I hope and pray that my kids will never have to hear me say that I need or want to be away from them, regardless of the day.
2.) I don't want anything fancy or frilly!
Save those big bucks for our adoption fund because I'd really LOVE to have another baby! Besides, I'm the one who gets to be a mom, I should be buying gifts for everyone else! (It's a little late for such a thought, but maybe next year! ;-)
3.) Last but not least, I don't want to do laundry or match socks!
Which means Monday will be gruesome! ;-) I know it'll be a delightful Mother's Day!
A Mother's Love
As a mother loves her child, fulfilling every need,
with a gentle touch and smile, such love is pure indeed.
So our Savior loves each one, who humbly kneels to pray,
he who asks to be God's child, will hear the Father say.
I am your God on high,
I will your need supply,
As in a mother's care,
My love I freely share.
If you will ask of me
I will sufficient be
As in a mother's care,
My love I freely share.
Only mother's voice can soothe the sorrows of the day.
She can all the pain remove in such a tender way.
God the Father hears our cry, and comforts when we pray.
He who asks to be God's child will hear the Father say.
I am your God on high,
I will your need supply,
As in a mother's care,
My love I freely share.
If you will ask of me
I will sufficient be
As in a mother's care,
My love I freely share.
