You may not know this Mommy

You may not know this Mommy,
But always you are on my mind.

I think of you in every little thing that happens in my life,
When playing with my kids, or talking to my wife.
You’ve shown me the way,
And I am always thinking of you.

You and dad are my heroes,
I look at my life and try to do what you did.
You made it all look so easy
Was it really, or was it that I was just a kid?

I love you Mommy.
I know I always will.
Please know that you did a good job raising me,
That what you taught may have taken time,
But I have learned.

I know it appeared that I wasn’t listening,
I know I didn’t seem to care,
But, when you were talking,
I thought you’d always be there.

You inspire me Mommy.
I can’t hold back my tears,
I know that you will be called home again soon,
What I want to say to you would take me years.

I don’t want you to leave me yet,
But I know that you must,
We will be okay now,
God’s love we have to trust.

When that time is upon us,
Go in peace and take your rest.
Keep an eye upon us,
And for having you, I feel Blessed.

God couldn’t have matched us better,
For I know I am just like you.
Thank you, Mommy for everything,
And know that I will always love you.

I love you Mommy!!!
