Dear Mother

To my mother, and my “mothers”: I love you!

The moment a child is born, the mother is also born.  She never existed before.  The woman existed, but the mother, never.  A mother is something absolutely new.  ~Rajneesh

The phrase "working mother" is redundant.  ~Jane Sellman

If evolution really works, how come mothers only have two hands?  ~Milton Berle

I love my mother as the trees love water and sunshine - she helps me grow, prosper, and reach great heights.  ~Terri Guillemets

Now, as always, the most automated appliance in a household is the mother.  ~Beverly Jones

There's nothing like a mama-hug.  ~Terri Guillemets

Who ran to help me when I fell,
And would some pretty story tell,
Or kiss the place to make it well?
My mother.
~Ann Taylor
