For You Mother

Taking this time to think rhetorically on all the things you’ve done for me. Not going to make this a long-winded story, but

appreciation is what is due on this day. I won’t take more than two minutes of your time, so as the preacher says. . .

Start my clock.

Thank you for encouraging me when no one else could even believe.

Thank you for being there for me when everyone else would simply leave.

Thank you for putting up with me when you really didn’t have to.

These are just a few of the reasons why I say thank you.

Thank you for your advice on things that I should do. Thank you for being the example mother

for me when it’s my turn too. Thank you for trusting me and loving me in all my faults.

Thank you for doing what it took no matter the cost.

Thank you for taking the time to care about the things I do. Thank you for just being there at the times I need you.

Thank you for the sacrifices you’ve made for me. You know . . . not a lot of mothers would do these things.

Thank you for letting me go and learn things for myself.

Thank you for not denying me at times when I need help. Thank you for encouraging me to do the best I can do.

I just pray that one day I can be a mother just like you. By Rolanda Smith
