A Daughter needs a Mom........
to tell her the road to happiness is not always straight
to explain that the sweetest flower may not always be the prettiest
to carry her when she is tired
to teach her that class never goes out of style
to teach her to love her friends, no matter what they do
to teach her to laugh at herself
to teach her that even true love requires compromise
who knows how to let loose and have fun
to show her how to give back to others
to show her to use humor to lighten heavy loads
to show her how to put a little love in everything she does
to tell her not to let pride get in the way of forgiving someone
to encourage her to be grateful
to catch her if she falls
to remind her, on the bad days, that she is not alone
and
to teach her that you cannot start a life over, but you can change the way it ends.

And to give her and her sister terribly frizzy hair to fuss over every day:)
What sweet thoughts. I believe they are true. I had a really great mom, and much of my mothering was learned from her. As for the frizzy hair your sister mentioned - well...sorry. That actually came from my Dad!
Julie I love it, it is so true.
So sweet Jewels! It means a lot having my Mom farther away, now, too! Thanks for the warm fuzzies!
