Mother's Day in Thailand (12 August 07)

A mother is the greatest and the precious gift we receive from the Almighty. She makes each day of us a glowing one with her unconditional love... so on Mother's Day make her feel on top of the world by showering her with all your love. Give her lovely gifts, cook her favorite recipes or send her your L.O.V.E

Big Hug to My Mom -- I Love You Very Much -- Every Things I do to make you more Happy, Healthy and Wealthy, I will ... xox


I read and share this lovely poem to you all...

My Mother My Friend
I've noticed that as I grow older I still rely on you,
my mother, for many things.
Although those things have changed over the years, my love for you hasn't.
It's just grown deeper, just like our friendship.
As a child I relied on you to love me, and to feed me.
I took for granted that you were always there.
I knew no other world.

As a teenager I gained an appreciation for what you did.
But saw the world through the eyes of someone
who was a little selfish and didn't "thank you" enough.

As an adult, I am so thankful for the friendship
that has blossomed between us.
You are still my mother and yes, I do rely on you
for the love that only a "mother" can give.
The years have shown me that you not only are you a wonderful mother,
but one of the "best friends" anyone could ever wish for.
And I still can't " Thank You " enough.

(Poetry Copyright ~ Ellen M. DuBois 2002)


I believe ...
A Mother's Love is something that no one can explain. It is made of deep devotion and of sacrifice and pain. It is endless and unselfish and enduring come what may.

"One day you (girls) will know ... what love can do"
