A Tribute to Moms

For those of you who are great moms, those of you who plan to be great Moms and those who have great moms......

REAL MOTHERS
Real Mothers don't eat quiche; they don't have time to make it.
Real Mothers know that their kitchen utensils are probably in the Sandbox.
Real Mothers often have sticky floors, filthy ovens and happy kids.
Real Mothers know that dried play dough doesn't come out of shag Carpets.
Real Mothers don't want to know what the vacuum just sucked up.
Real Mothers sometimes ask 'Why me?' and get their answer when a little
Voice says, 'Because I love you best.'
Real Mothers know that a child ' s growth is not measured by height or
Years or grade...It is marked by the progression of Mama to Mom to Mother...

The Images of Mother

4 YEARS OF AGE
My Mommy can do anything!

8 YEARS OF AGE
My Mom knows a lot! A whole lot!

12 YEARS OF AGE
My Mother doesn't really know quite everything.

14 YEARS OF AGE
Naturally, Mother doesn't know that, either.

16 YEARS OF AGE
Mother? She's hopelessly old-fashioned.

18 YEARS OF AGE
That old woman? She's way out of date!

25 YEARS OF AGE
Well, she might know a little bit about it.

35 YEARS OF AGE
Before we decide, let's get Mom ' s opinion.

45 YEARS OF AGE
Wonder what Mom would have thought about it?

65 YEARS OF AGE
Wish I could talk it over with Mom.

The beauty of a woman Is not in the clothes she wears, The figure that
She carries, Or the way she combs her hair.
The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, Because that is the
Doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.
The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole, But true beauty in a
Woman is reflected in her soul.
It is the caring that she lovingly gives, The passion that she shows,
And the beauty of a woman with passing years-only grows!
