* real mothers

Real mothers don't eat quiche
they don't have time to make it.
`
Real mothers know their kitchen utensils
are probably in the sandbox.
`
Real mothers often have sticky floors
filthy ovens & happy kids.
`
Real mothers know that dried play dough
doesn't come out of carpets.
`
Real mothers don't even want to know
what the vacuum just sucked up
`
Real mothers sometimes ask "Why me?"
& get their answer when a little voice says, "Because I love you best."
`
Real mothers know that a child's growth isn't measured by height, years or grades
it's marked by the progression from 'mommy' to 'mom' to 'mother'

The Images of a mother
4 years old
My mommy can do anything!
`
8 years old
My mom knows a lot...a whole lot!
`
12 years old
My mom doesn’t know everything!
`
14 years old
My mom?...she wouldn’t have a clue
`
16 years old
Mom? She's sooooooo five minutes ago.
`
18 years old
That old woman? She's waaaaay out of date!
`
25 years old
Well, she might know a little bit about it!
`
35 years old
Before we decide, let's get mom's opinion.
`
45 years old
Wonder what mom would've thought about it?
`
65 years old
Wish I could talk it over with mom.
`
The beauty of a woman's not in the clothes she wears, the figure she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that's the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. The beauty of a woman's not in a facial mole, but true beauty in a woman's reflected in her soul. It's the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows & the beauty of a woman with passing years only grows!
`
Please send this to five moms today. If you don't, nothing bad will happen, but if you do, something good will. You'll boost a mother's spirits, that's for sure!
