Love On Your Mama

Don't forget to love on your mama today!

Don't forget to tell your Mama how thankful you are that she decided to have you.  Don't forget to tell your mama that you're thankful she stayed up all those nights to feed you and nurse you and change those nasty diapers.

Don't forget to thank your Mama for the band-aid she gave you for climbing trees and poppin' wheelies and trying to keep up with your brothers when your little girly body wasn't always made to handle your adventures.

Don't forget to thank your Mama for not coddling you when she dropped you off at kindergarten.  She probably wanted to hold you tightly and never let you go since you were her last one but you were ready and so she let you be ready.

Don't forget to thank your Mama for making your drum majorette uniform so that you wouldn't have to wear that hideous wool one.

Don't forget to thank your Mama for taking you on a road trip to Iowa when you were fifteen and sat in the backseat with your best friend the whole way.

Don't forget to thank your Mama for visiting you at college, paying for you and all your new dorm friends to have dinner out and for bringing your Grandma's to come have a girls weekend.

Don't forget to thank your Mama for all the letters that said, "I believe in you", "You can do it", "You're the best" and "I love you".

Don't forget to thank your Mama for letting you adventure out into the world.

And don't forget to thank your Mama for all the things you can't at this time remember and probably never even know half the things she did for you.

Be sure to love on and thank your Mama, she's God's gift to you!
