Celebration of a Queen!

My Queen, My Mother!

“I remember my mother’s prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life.” — — Abraham Lincoln

Mother….you are precious

Resilient despite difficulties

Hopeful beyond pain

You put my needs before yours

My welfare always in your heart

You are indeed the queen of my heart

And I greatly celebrate you today

You hold a special place in my heart

And no one can take that place

A sacred place reserved for you

As I celebrate you

Know that you are loved!

“A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.” — — Washington Irving
