Mothers by Larry Oldham

Mother's Day is this month ,and although

we know about a Mother's love,

sometimes we take it for granted. Mothers

live for their children. Mother's

sacrifice for their children , and Mother's

have a undying love for their children.

My Mother read the bible to me and my sister

nightly. Mother's who read to their children not

only love their children but want to teach their

children to love. This is a time when we ususually

bring a gift to our mother. No gift can match the gift

she has given to us...life itself. We never forget

our Mother's.

It would be impossible to live life, either good or bad,

without acknowledging the love of our mother. You are

always sure of your mother's love. A mother's

challenge is to love her children, while helping

the child to grow away from her and to become fully

independent. What challenge do we face today that is

harder than this challenge of our mother?

Someone once said “ A man loves his sweetheart the most,

his wife the best, and his mother the longest”.

A mother's love is in your heart forever. We are what

our mother's made us. A child is just a child to a mother ,

no matter what age the child reaches. When my mother felt

cold , I wore a coat. Even as an adult she still asks,

“Where is your coat, you will freeze to death.” A mother's

hopes and dreams are never forgotten for her children ,

no matter what their age. If you don't reach the top and

you don't reach her dreams or your dreams, you are still a

mother's child, who loves you with all her heart. You can

always be sure of your mother's love and your mother's arms

are always open when you need a hug. Reach out and hug

your mother today. To the world,you might be one person,

but to your mother you are her whole world and love is a free gift.
