Share a hug that will last a lifetime

***

I have an important message for you.

It may come as a surprise, because this message is not repeated nearly often enough. Are you ready?

You are greatly admired. It's worth repeating. You are greatly admired.

And not just by your family--by others, too. Some of your admirers are close acquaintances, others are strangers, but they all hold you in high regard. Why? Because you are a mother through and through. . . .

Because you are totally in love with your family and are thoroughly prepared to show your love by giving all, asking little, and accepting less. . . .

You may do many other things in your life on earth that will be productive and meaningful, but none will be as admired as being the beautiful mother you are. --Excerpt from Hugs for Mom
