My Wonderful Mother 
Mom has dedicated this "Love Pot" to me! 
Thank You Mom for the love pot :-) 
This is a poem that i received in an e-mail. When I read it I knew instantly what I was going to do with it. Dedicate it to you mom on my web page. The author is unknown to me or I would give that person the proper credit they deserve. MOTHERS By the time God made mothers, he was into his sixth day working overtime. An Angel appeared and said "Why are you spending so much time on this one?" And God answered and said, "Have you read the spec sheet on her? She has to be completely washable, but not plastic; have 200 movable parts, all replaceable; run on black coffee and leftovers; have a lap that can hold three children at one time and that disappears when she stands up; have a kiss that can cure anything from a scraped knee to a broken heart; and have six pairs of hands." The Angel was astounded at the requirements for this one. "Six pairs of hands! No Way!" said the Angel. God replied, "Oh, it's not the hands that are the problem. It's the three pairs of eyes that mothers must have!" And that's on the standard model?" the Angel asked. God nodded in agreement, " Yep, one pair of eyes are to see through the closed door as she asks her children what they are doing even though she already knows. Another pair in the back of her head, are to see what she needs to know even though no one thinks she can. And the third pair are here in the front of her head. They are for looking at an errant child and saying that she understands and loves him or her without even saying a single word." The Angel tried to stop God "This is too much work for one day. Wait until tomorrow to finish." "But I can't!" God protested, "I am so close to finishing this creation that is so close to my own heart. She already heals herself when she is sick AND can feed a family of six on a pound of hamburger and can get a four year old to stand in the shower." The Angel moved closer and touched the woman, "But you have made her so soft, God." "She is soft," God agreed, "but I have also made her tough. You have no idea what she can endure or accomplish." "Will she be able to think?" Asked the angel. God replied, "Not only will she be able to think, she will be able to reason, and negotiate." The Angel then noticed something and reached out and touched the woman's cheek. "Oops, it looks like you have a leak with this model. I told you that you were trying to put too much into this one." "That's not a leak." God objected. "That's a tear!" "What's the tear for?" the Angel asked. God said, "The tear is her way of expressing her joy, her sorrow, her disappointment, her pain, her loneliness, her grief, and her pride." The Angel was impressed. "You are a genius, God. You thought of everything for this one.
