For a mother that works hard as two
A gift of rest I give to you
A pair of slippers to place on your feet
Some peace and quiet you will greet
A novel for you to read and enjoy
The serene moment that brings you joy
The bubbling fragrance to put in your bath
To lead you down a relaxing path
And finally the tea for you to drink
To clean your mind and help you think
This gift of rest I give to you
To say "Thanks Mom," and "I love you!"

Recently while going through some papers I found
this poem written back probably 10 years ago. As
a mother does she saves the things she most cherishes.
The year that my daughter Lauri wrote this was one
that we found most difficult in our household, coming
across it filled my heart with more love than you
could ever imagine. That little girl that wrote this
poem has turned into a beautiful young woman and has 
exceeded our every expectation. 
Often I wonder what my next page will be about and
when I came across this I knew instantly. Paper in time 
will deteriorate but by the power of the internet I can
preserve a very special memory. 

Dedicated to "Lollipop" for making motherhood such a 
wonderful part of my life. I love you my first born
angel!
