Good Old Mom!

I found this poem last year as I was trying to find something for my students to make for their mothers. My mom has been the best mom who has cried and laughed with me, listened and been patient with me, taught and scolded me. I love you mom!

And, to Jimmy's mom who is so wonderful and raised an incredible man, who loves me everyday! (I'll let him write more about her) I love you mom!


Good Old MOM!

Who is the one who combs my hair
And drives me almost anywhere?
Who makes me wear clean underwear?
Good old MOM!

Who is the one who hums a tune
When I'm home sick in the afternoon?
Who brings me milk and a macaroon?
Good old MOM!

Who tucks me into bed each night
And tells me things will be all right ?
Who yells at me, "Turn out that light!?"
Good old MOM!

Who cares for me each live long day?
Well, I love her more than words can say
And I wish her Happy Mother's Day!
Good old MOM!
