My dearest friend.
You aren't like any other
Look at all the time you spend.
Just to bring joy,
For your children before you
Even though all we do is annoy.
But Mothers like you are very few.
I know I mean something
Even when you joke with me
But you're helping me expand my wings
And prepare for the world I'll see.
I'm growing up quite fast
And I'll miss you when I leave
But out of all my friends, you well surpassed
Because YOU'RE the one helping me to achieve.
All the pointless money spent
And the whining I've done,
I hope you know how much it truly meant.
And I hope you know, it's just begun.

I hope of all, you're proud of me
Because I know I'm proud of you.
Surviving as a mother of three.
Is something I could NEVER do.
All in all what I'm trying to say
Is I love you,
And I will everyday,
Even if you think it's a ballyhoo.
One last thing,
Happy birthday,
I hope it brought cheer,
And nothing but "Hooray!"
And guess what? You're older by one more year!
Happy Birthday Mom!
I hope it's a great one.
♥♥♥
