The Bottom Line Reasons to be thankful...

I'm grateful
to have a friend in you
A woman of strength,
Of character, and drive
And although, when I was younger,
I didn't always show you love...
I'm grateful that God chose you to be
my guide, my mentor, and my mom!
As you celebrate another year of life
To you, I dedicate this poem
Mother, I truly love you
For your love, your wisdom,
and your joy
As we celebrate
reasons to be grateful
I am grateful to have
you for my mom
Keep striving to inspire others
Keep holding onto
God's strong hand
Keep raising generations of children
teaching what's important
in this life
Mother, I am so grateful
that I have you to be my guiding light
Without your strength
and your compassion
long ago, I would have died.
So, as you turn seventy-nine,
I pray that God gives you
Seventy-nine more
Mom, for you, I am grateful
You're a woman who I adore!
