We couldn't begin

To count the times

She tolerated our moods,

Consoled our heartbreaks

And disappointments,

Endured our ups and downs,

Listened to words confused by tears

And just simply understood

For no other reason

Than because she loved us.

The years hold precious memories,

But most of all they hold growth.

In a way, we grew up together…

Mom is our definition

Of a special person

Fantastic…

Exceptional…

Unique…

Enduring!

She filled our lives with happiness

And sweet feelings that we will

Carry in our hearts forever.
