"Mom -- the person most likely to write an autobiography and never mention herself."
"What is a mom but the sunshine of our days and the north star of our nights."
"If you have a mom, there is nowhere you are likely to go where a prayer has not already been."
"Ever wonder why someone would give up the leading role in her own life story to play the mom in yours?"
"There seems, early in life, to be countless reasons for happiness, and then you discover your mom is making them up."
Hide and Seek
A mother always counts to ten,
And never, never peeks,
But always knows just where you
hide,
And there she never seeks,
Until the very nick of time,
Lest tears run down your cheeks.
"I guess I have never doubted that we are each born to our guardian angel."
"Sometimes, in a moral struggle, we remember a lesson our mother taught us, just as on a cold winter's day long ago, we discovered mittens pinned to our coat sleeves."
"Conscience is less an inner voice than the memory of a mother's glance."
"A mother forgives you all your faults, not to mention one or two you don't even have."
"Eventually you realize that your mom knows exactly who you are and has been trying to break it to you gently all your life."
"It occurs to you one day that the reason God didn't always answer your prayers is that He was answering your mom's prayers."
"Your mom reads you like a book, and everywhere she goes, people read you like a glowing book review."
Those Times
Those times you could not see her tears,
Do you think she didn't cry?
Those times you could not bear the truth,
Do you think she didn't lie?
Those times you wished she loved you less,
Do you think she didn't try?
