We love you Mum

We love you Mum
And we have to say
It’s not fair you only get one day
When every second of every minute
We thank the Universe for putting you in it
There are not enough words
In any language spoken
All we have is a small token
Of our love to give
Reflected in the life we live
We’d tell you every single day
How much we love you in every way
Without you, we’d be nothing
Without your love, we’d not survive
Without your grace, care and kindness
We’d be born another child
So we thank you Mum
We are grateful for who we are
The equal sum of you and Dad
Have made us who we are

    You really know how to say what needs to be said. Very cleaver and very loving and caring. XXx

  2. 😊 kait you read my mind! I am my mothers daughter. I have made mistakes as she. I’ve hurt her with my words and vice versa, but just this morning I realized that my parents both love me. And I was actually able to own up to my side of wrongs – my own struggles with alcoholism and eating disorders. It felt so freeing to be truthful, but also honoring that my parents made me me. I love them and I know they love me. I love my mom so much. She’s my first hero. She taught me music as I teach my kids. We have our faults, but love doesn’t go away. ❤️

    • Oh I love my mum, and my dad… He has wandered over to the other side now but he was awesome too. My poor mum’s a bit lost without him after 61 years of marriage. I know he’s around and so much better off where he is as he was 85 and in so much pain. We have it so much easier in the sense of technology with washing machines and plastic nappies etc. She had 4 children, 3 under the age of 3 at one stage…. Phenomenal really! A Celebration of Woman is what I need to start up I think! 🙂
