This is for the mothers who clean up after the puppy, tackle loads of laundry, and make it to all the soccer games.
This is for the mother who saves every homemade Mother's Day card, and crayon drawing from their child.
This is for the mothers who read to their children.
This is for the mothers wno stay at home or work outside the home because a mother's shift is 24/7.
This is for the mothers who learn how to text, so that they can communicate with their young adult children.
This is for the mothers who are not perfect, but whose love for their children is perfect.
