I am thankful for the friendship we share.
That we were able to move beyond The teen years, the trauma years, To share the joys--and challenges-- Of my becoming an adult, of being a mother.
Now that I am in your challenging shoes, I find I want to know you as a woman,
To learn about your growing up years, About the hopes, the dreams, the heartaches That made you not only my mother, but my friend. Happy Mother's Day! Let's go to lunch! |
