Happy Mother’s Day!

Wishing all the mothers and mothers-to-be out there a happy and relaxing Mother’s Day. I leave you with this sweet poem by David Young, which spotlights a spouse’s admiration for the mother of his children.

Mother’s Day

— for my children

I see her doing something simple, paying bills,

or leafing through a magazine or book,

and I wish that I could say, and she could hear,

that now I start to understand her love

for all of us, the fullness of it.

It burns there in the past, beyond my reach,

a modest lamp.

David Young
