A Tribute to Mothers on Mother's Day

Words are appreciated for their meanings, and when they are put together to form phrases, sentences, paragraphs, and so on.. they express a variety of feelings, emotions, infatuations, purpose, motives, and what have you..

May 11 this year is Mother's Day. As a mother myself, I love to be loved, remembered and pampered especially on a special ocassion like this. But maybe I can't expect much of that sort of thing from a six-year old like my Princess. For me, it's more than enough that we have each other everyday of the year and every mother's day.


Below, I endeavoured to put together words that express every meaning that symbolizes that special attachment, reverence and tribute that mothers deserve on Mother's Day. They are intentionally shortened, and in some cases paraphrased, so that they can be transmitted in SMS - the now considered state-of-the-art way to send messages in leiu of the letter written on specially decorated perfumed paper. I won't expect my Princess to copy and send these prepared messages for me, though she knows how to manipulate the cellphone. No, not yet.. she's not yet a responsible 'texter'! This brings me to imagine: "how old will a child be to be considered a responsible texter?".. Gives me one piece of material to consult my 'expert' on the matter.

Anyway, here are the sample messages that you can send to your mothers through the SMS:

1. God's omnipresence is made more manifests when He created mothers. Happy Mother's Day!!

2. "M" is for the million things she gave me,
"O" means only that she's growing old,
"T" is for the tears she shed to save me,
"H" is for her heart of purest gold,
"E" is for her eyes, with love-light shining,
"R" means right, and right she'll always be.

3. Once upon a memory. Someone wiped away a tear. Held me close and loved me. Thank you, Mother dear. Happy Mother's Day.

4. The Miracle of Life nurtured by a woman who gave us love and sacrifice...MOTHER. Happy Mother's Day!!

5. For the best mom who always had a smile for me, I know we may be far apart right now. So here's a great big hug and kiss. Happy Mother's Day.

6. When you feel you are alone in the crowd, When you think No.1 can understand you, When your love is rejected by others, & when you hate your Life, Just close your eyes, & see, her face who loves youmore than any 1 else, who care for you in loneliness, & dies when you cry. She is no 1, but your sweet loving mother. Love your mom first and always. I take this opportunity to thank you for your immeasurable contribution to my life. Thank you Mom! And wish you a Very Happy Mother's Day!

7. You've seen me laugh; You've seen me cry; And always you were there with me. I may not have always said it, but thanks and I love you very much. Happy Mother's Day.

OK guys? If you can't say it with flowers and cards, say it through text, or better still, buy her a brand new cellphone - the latest from her favorite brand.. hehehe! Isn't that the best way to pamper your Mom on Mother's Day??!!
