A young boy said to his mother, 'How old were you when I was born?' His mother replied, '23.' 'Wow, that's a lot of time we missed spending together.'

Mom,

You may be treated like the maid,

you may be treated like the gardner,

you may be treated like the daycare,

you may be treated like the chauffer,

you may be treated like many things.

But one thing is for sure,You will always be loved.

For a fathers work may be from sun up till sundown,

but a mothers work is never down.

And all that I have, am, and hope to be, I owe to you,

So this is for all the times I forgot to say THANK YOU!

Hope you enjoy this little tribute for Mother's Day.

Love from your son,

Stephen
