Some of us never had , a nanny.
Some of us strictly had or mothers.
Most, if honest must admit, we mainly was shaped by her.

Least with respect and manners.
That woman, when young we don't honor enough.
Probably treating worse  than we should.

But that one lady, we die for.
Is the one that protected us.
Fed us
Clothed us.
Sacrifice for us.
Found ways to get things done.

We all should say, mom I salute you.
If more siblings, than mom, we salute you.

Even to those children's who mom has passed on?
Reflect back and you realize why she was a great mom?
Mothers, leads by the common sense approach.

Guiding us through conflicts that comes before us.
Treat me the way you like to be treated.

We hear this more from moms than , we does fathers.
And there are some good ones too.

Get ill, we call mom.
Get in trouble, we option for mom.
And sometimes regret that when she reaches for the belt.

Mom, we salute you.
For being a judge.
For being a counselor.
For being a minister.
Especially concerning the guidance of the scriptures.

Oh, we can't say enough about mothers.
Even to those that feel they never had a good one.
But in various ways, even the bad ones was good ones.

They taught you, what you didn't want to be?
It's in the teaching of what we become?
Mom, we salute you.
In the lives of many sons and daughters.
You'll always be number one.

God know, why he created woman?
