Happy Mother's Day!!!

I spent most of yesterday evening combing for wonderful quotes to post today. I found these and believe them to be truly relevant to being a Mother:

The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new. ~Rajneesh

God could not be everywhere, so he created mothers. ~Jewish Proverb

A man loves his sweetheart the most, his wife the best, but his mother the longest. ~Irish Proverb

Making the decision to have a child - it's momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body. Elizabeth Stone

And because I thought these were funny:
Children seldom misquote you. They more often repeat word for word what you shouldn't have said. -Mae Maloo

The thing that impresses me most about America is the way parents obey their children. -Duke of Windsor

And because this sums up being a mother:
Being a mother has made my life complete. -Darcy Bussell

My fondest wish is that you all have a happy Mother's Day. And remember, giving birth to a child doesn't make one a mother, it's the loving care that you give those entrusted to you that makes you one - Angela Thompson
