A Mother's Love

A Mother's Love is beyond knowing. The nights she lay in bed hoping for us, crying for us, praying for us. The times she placed her hand on us in the middle of the night, just to feel us breathing. How she went without, so that we would have or have better. How she did and always would protect us with her very life to the last drop of her blood....and yet she, for the sake of our ownership in ourselves painfully stepped back at times and let us persist to tumble as she readied the first-aid kit for our minds/bodies/souls. We will never know, which is just as well...because even if we knew we would not have words to tell. 
Happy Mother's Day.....you know who you are.
