Happy Mother's Day...what can you say?

I know I haven't been an easy child,But love for you lies underneath my whims;There is no way I could be tame or mild:I need sometimes to shout and wave my limbs. You're the wall I need to test my height,The countervailing force to test my strength, The chain I hammer at with all my might,Even though you have increased its length. It's tough, I know, to be both Mom and Dad,To raise me all alone, just hit or miss;To have to play at once good cop and bad,And give me grief before my goodnight kiss. But love against the odds is stronger still:I need your fierce, proud love, and always will. By: Nicholas Gordon
