There IS Love
We’ve been the best of friends and fought like enemies.
We laughed until we cried, and cried until … we didn’t speak.
Yet, with all the laughing and crying,
there was Love.
The years have softened and humbled us,
We learned to appreciate each other more.
Suddenly I opened my eyes, to what I didn’t see before.
I saw a mother who worked her hardest, to be the best Mom she could be.
Who told me who God was, and of all that He could see.
A Mom who still encouraged me, even when I fell.
Who taught me about gratitude, and how to be thankful.
A Mom who cared enough to ground me, when my grades went down.
But the praise I heard when they came back up, was always the best sound.
With all the laughing and crying,
There was love.
I have so many memories
They always make me smile,
I am grateful for all my Mom has done.
Though I’m sorry it took a while.
When I think back over the years now,
This is what I see,
Just how strong my Mothers’ love, has always been for me.
Through all the laughing and crying,
There always was Love!
Thanks Mom … sorry it took so long to see what was there all along.
I LOVE YOU TOO! ~ Trish xoxo
That is a one of the best gifts you can give a mom!!
