You sacrificed so much for me,
And did it willingly,
You gave me love and soothed my pain
And worried endlessly.
You washed my clothes and cleaned our home
And did the shopping too,
You never loved me any less
For what I put you through.
I was always first to you
I never had a doubt,
If there was something that I needed
You would go without.
You gave so freely of yourself
So I could be my best
That's something many never know
And why I feel so blessed.
I never thought I'd feel such pain
So many tears I've cried,
But you still live within my heart
You never really died.
Happy birthday mom. I love you and I miss you terribly.
