Happy Mothers Day to me!!

Happy Mothers Day



How does a Riley show his mama his love, and remind her, he is her favorite gift from above

He tries to be kind and always to care, and try’s to show others how she taught him to share

At times the kindness and sharing gets derailed, and punching at preschool might get him expelled

He will try a new food even though he is picky, as long as it isn’t too runny or sticky

If the food is not good he is quick to throw up and dad will run away leaving mom to clean up.

He will crawl on the floor without a care, while his mom asks how many jeans can you tear

Zooming cars in his jeans can be such a blast, it isn’t his fault the knees don’t last

He will ask you to do things on the schedule he has set, if his schedule is broken he might throw a fit

If a fit does happen do not fret, next time do it his way and you’ll have no regret.

These things I have listed might sound pretty bad, but she always see progress and for that mom is glad

At times he will say things so sweet or so funny he can make moms cloudy days seem very sunny

And on days when it seems all has gone wrong, he will say I can’t go to bed without a hug and a song

A hug and a kiss and a whisper good night and suddenly mom’s bad days all seem alright

And when mom is at her wits end, a smile and I love you can put her nerves on the mend

Sweet and funny and amazingly bright, if he would just stay in his bed every night

He thinks he is luckier then all the other kids, because his mom is the bestest there is

On mothers day don’t forget never, that he loves you up to the moon and back up to the moon and back ever
