Mother's Day!

Mother, mom, mommy... How do you call your mom?

According to Wikipedia: The modern Mother's Day holiday was created by Anna Jarvis as a day for each family to honor their mother, and it's now celebrated on various days in many places around the world. It is celebrated in the United States and in Venezuela each year on the second Sunday of May.

These are some short poems dedicated to all the moms' in their Day!

M - O - T - H - E - R

"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,

Put them all together, they spell

"MOTHER,"

A word that means the world to me.

Howard Johnson (c. 1915)

*****************************************************
"We only have One Mom, One Mommy,
One Mother in this World, One life.
Don't wait for the Tomorrow's
to tell Mom, you love her"
"To the world you might just be one person,
but to one person you might just be the world."

*****************************************************

Things o tell your mom....

Your arms were always open when I needed a hug. Your heart understood when I needed a friend. Your gentle eyes were stern when I needed a lesson. Your strength and love has guided me and gave me wings to fly. - Sarah Malin

Now, go to our EFL University and upload a photo of you and your mom... Write why you think she's the greatest mom in the world...

And keep on shining Love and Peace!
