Mum.
A word lots hear.
A word some wish to hear.
The first words you hope to hear.
Will it be MumMum?
Or DadDad?
This tiny bundle of joy
made you a mum.
No matter how
you got there.
Birth, adoption, step-parent.
Maybe it didn’t happen for you.
You may be an aunt.
You’re a blessing to someone,
some other way.
M-U-M
Three letters with a whole
lot of meaning.
There’s a lot of mothers
in the Bible.
One mother was
99 years old!
Imagine that!
It’s going to be Mother’s Day.
Or maybe it’s already Mother’s Day.
Take a moment to appreciate
the one who mothered you.
If you can thank them,
do so.
Mums need to feel special.
I thank God every day
for my mother.
She had her mother
as an example.
Happy Mother’s Day
to every mum, step-mum
and mum-to-be.
May you feel very blessed
and special today.
Thank you Lord,
for mothers!
