For endless love so pure and true.

You love, you help, you guide the way.
You make me smile, you help me grow,
And I just want you to know—
I love you more than words can say,
Happy, happy Mother’s Day!
Before I knew the world so wide,
I felt your warmth right by my side.
Your heartbeat was my favorite song,
A love so deep, so big, so strong.
Now I’m in your arms so tight,
Everything feels soft and right.
Your gentle voice, your loving touch,
I love you so very much!
My tiny hands, so small, so new,
Love to reach and hold on to you.
You keep me safe, you hold me tight,
With you, Mommy, the world feels right.

You make my worries float away.
You wipe my tears, you kiss my face,
Mommy, you are my safest place.
A mother’s heart is big and strong,
She keeps me safe, she sings a song.
She wipes my tears, holds me tight,
She fills my world with love and light.
Thank you, Mom, for all you do,
Happy Mother’s Day to you!

Cozy, warm, and full of zest.

And fills my heart with lovely dreams!

They bake, they sew, they wipe my eyes.
Her love is stitched in all she does,
She’s the best there ever was!
