Mom, I love you,

For everything you do.

You make my life meaningful,

You're the leader I always knew

And for that, I am thankful.

It started when I was small

You held me in your arms.

You made sure I had it all

You made it so I’d never see harm.

You were there from the start 

For all this, I hold you dearest to my heart.

Mom, I love you,

I know that that is true.

You saw my first step,

You watched As I Grew.

You helped me to prep

For my life ahead.

Sometimes I wished I had someone else,

But now all I wish is for you instead.

You taught me to speak my mind

And to always, always be kind.

You spoke the truth,

You helped me get through my youth.

You were always my counterpart

For all this, I hold you dearest to my heart.

Mom, I love you

You've always been there.

By your shows of love

I now know that you care.

You are my dove,

My light in the dark.

You helped me through everything,

You enlightened my spark.

To you I would cling.

You gave me support 

When I felt down.

You would be my escort,

You made sure I'd never frown.

You're oh so very smart,

For all this, I hold you dearest to my heart.

Mom, I love you.

I hope you believe me

When I say that is true.

Mom, I love you,

I hope you know I care.

And, just know

I'll always be there.

Mom, I love you,

I hope you find your way.

But, just know, Live life, 

Even if it's only for a day.

Mom, I love you.

I hope that were never apart

For all this, I hold you dearest to my heart.
