Mothers Are The Best
The instinctive nature of mothering comes to the fore many times throughout a child’s life, particularly when it is needed most. A mother knows what her child needs and hastens to give it to him even before he asks. And when a mother gives her best to her child, she gives him one of the greatest gifts she can give – just like my mom. She is a prime example of a mother able to play a multitude of roles, giving all of herself in order to let us (me and Ate Belle) feel that the best care is given all the time.
A mother is a constant teacher, who continually helps her child learn. From his earliest days, even while in the womb, a child forms his perceptions and understanding of the world according to those of his mother. By her words and actions a mother sets the stage.
A mother is a child’s first source of tender love. Love is the most vital emotion for a child, particularly in his formative years, and his mother is its foundation. A mother’s love is what enables her to bear the pain of childbirth, to spend sleepless nights caring for her children, and put their needs above her own.
A mother is a wellspring of emotional support. Mothers rejoice in the achievement of her children. And well they should, for these achievements are the fruit of their very best care.
Mothers are unique, special and irreplaceable. It is because of them and what they go through that we enjoy the best care and love. All that we are, and all that we can be, we owe them to our mothers.
To my mom… and to all the mothers out there, Happy Mother’s Day!
