Mom can take the place of everyone but whose place no one else can take! - unknown
Our mother was the first person we came to know intimately. She carried us inside herself, safe, warm and protected. She was the first person to hold us tightly in her arms, that fed us our first meal when arriving in this world. The first one to kiss us on our faces and maybe sang to us. She sacrificed much to provide for our every need not just by feeding us but by dressing us appropriately depending on the weather and where she was taking us. She changed our diapers frequently, nursed us back to health when we were sick. She became our at home tutor to help us with home work and she gave us advice when we had our first crush, she was our chauffeur to our numerous activities. She encouraged us to try harder to achieve our goals when we wanted to give up. She offered advice and correction if we made a poor decision. But more importantly she taught us what love is and what it means to make sacrifices for another above yourself.
Proverbs 31:28–29
