ORCHIDS FOR MOTHERS

MartianGirl's home-made card for me. She specially made me into a MartianMum. I guess I deserved it for naming her MartianGirl in my blog, pay-back time!
FOR ALL MOTHERS - MAY GOD BLESS AND THE ANGELS GUIDE YOU
Ever told your child
We'll do it tomorrow
And in your haste
Not see his sorrow
Just for this morning, I will not rush you out from bed, I will let you sleep in and enjoy your dreams.
Just for this morning, I will not go for my walk, I will make your favourite bacon sandwich and sit with you to eat.
Just for this afternoon, I will turn off my computer and listen to your stories about teachers and school.
Just for this afternoon, I will not yell to finish your homework, I will sit with you and watch one of your girlish movies.
Just for this evening, I will not nag you about finishing your rice and vegetables, I will let you have your favourite cheese burger.
Just for this evening, I will not worry about what you will be, I will let you choose and have fun along the way. Just for tonight, I will forget about my work and tell you stories about daddy and me and how much we love you.
Just for tonight, I will snuggle beside you, and thank God for the most precious gift he has ever given me.
When we run so fast
To get some where,
We miss half the fun
Of getting there.
When we worry and hurry
To get through our day,
Life is like an unopened gift
Thrown away.
Life is not a race
Do take it slower,
Hear the music
Before the song is over.
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

    Oh yes, I've done that, innocently, and regretted it, immediately.
    That was a lovely post, I'm so pleased I popped across to read it.
