I found this tucked away and thought it was nice, so I thought I'd share:

REAL MOTHERS

Real Mothers don't eat quiche; they don't have time to make it.

Real Mothers know that their kitchen utensils are probably in the sandbox.

Real Mothers often have sticky floors, filthy ovens and happy kids.

Real Mothers know that dried playdough doesn't come out of shag carpets.

Real Mothers don't want to know what the vacuum just sucked up.

Real Mothers sometimes ask "Why me?" and get their answer when a little voice says, "Because I love you best."

Real Mothers know that a child's growth is not measured by height or years or grade...It is marked by the progression of Mama to Mommy to Mom...

THE IMAGES OF A MOTHER

4 Years of Age    My Mommy can do anything!

8 Years of Age   My Mom knows a lot! A whole lot!

12 Years of Age   My Mother doesn't really know quite everything.

14 Years of Age   Naturally, Mother doesn't know that, either.

16 Years of Age   Mother? She's hopelessly old-fashioned.

18 Years of Age   That old woman? She's way out of date!

25 Years of Age   Well, she might know a little bit about it.

35 Years of Age   Before we decide, let's get Mom's opinion.

45 Years of Age   Wonder what Mom would have thought about it?

65 Years of Age   Wish I could talk it over with Mom


THE BEAUTY OF A WOMAN

The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears,

The figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair.

The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes,
Because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.

The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole,
But true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul.

It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows,

And the beauty of a woman with passing years, only grows!
