A mother is the strongest person you will ever know
Only a mother will share her body with an unborn child
And go through hours of excruciating pain
just to bring a bundle of joy into the world

Only a mother's kiss can cure all injuries
From a paper cut to a skinned knee
A mother's kiss will make it all better

Only a mother will understand the feelings of heartbreak
She will sit with her child for countless hours of tears
And make her child feel like a princess

Only a mother will spend her lifetime protecting her child
Just to watch her child leave the house for good
And the mother will suffer from empty nest syndrome

Only years later
She will look at her child
And have tears in her eyes
As she realizes her daughter is raising her grandchild the same way

Only a mother
