PoemS for Mom(s)

As cliché it may sound, every day is Mother's Day. As an adult I realize how much deeper my mothers love runs within.  Words can't express how much my mother means to me, from nurturing me to helping me along the way and even now as a married woman she provides her ear, wisdom and meals when I have my tired/lazy days. No words can express my gratitude...I love you mom! (The strongest woman I know).

"There is no love, like a mother's love,

no stronger bond on earth...

like the precious bond that comes from God,

to a mother, when she gives birth.

A mother's love is forever strong,

never changing for all time...

and when her children need her most,

a mother's love will shine.

God bless these special mothers,

God bless them every one...

for all the tears and heartache,

and for the special work they've done.

When her days on earth are over,

a mother's love lives on...

through many generations,

with God's blessings on each one.

Be thankful for our mothers,

for they love with a higher love... 

from the power God has given, 

and the strength from up above"

Why re-invent the wheels; here are other of poems I found online.

Dear Mom

by Anonymous

Dear Mom, I said a prayer for you to thank the Lord above For blessing me with a lifetime of your tenderhearted love. I thanked God for the caring you've shown me through the years, For the closeness we've enjoyed in time of laughter and of tears. And so, I thank you from the heart for all you've done for me And I bless the Lord for giving me the best mother there could be. A Poem For Mom © Champagne S. Baker You are the sunlight in my day, You are the moon I see far away. You are the tree I lean upon, You are the one that makes troubles be gone. You are the one who taught me life, How not to fight, and what is right. You are the words inside my song, You are my love, my life, my mom. You are the one who cares for me, You are the eyes that help me see. You are the one who knows me best, When it's time to have fun and time to rest. You are the one who has helped me to dream, You hear my heart and you hear my screams. Afraid of life but looking for love, I'm blessed for God sent you from above. You are my friend, my heart, and my soul You are the greatest friend I know. You are the words inside my song, You are my love, my life, my Mom. (Source)

Take Me Away Programs!

What is a travel theme without a passport or luggage tags?

The excitement began when I received my custom stamp in the mail (here), then it went on to the assembly of the programs (here). Now you get to take a look at the inserts of the programs, so take us away programs, since it couldn't take us anywhere else but through the wedding outline:

First: United States of Marriage

Second: Order of Ceremony (No image, the usual!)

Third/Fourth: Bridal Party (No image because of the names; privacy)

Note: Instead of using "Bridesmaids" I used the term "Bride Ladies"; Also included my "BodyGuards and "Little Guards" which were my nephews (here).

Fifth: Reading of Ceremony (will show wording in a separate post.)

Sixth: Thank you (will show clearer wording in a separate post.)

That concludes the passport programs!

The other day as we were unpacking a few of our boxes, hubby came across one of the programs and began saying "why isn't your passport in a secure place?". After taking a second look he just sucked his teeth, lol!! With that said, I must say that we must have done a good job :-)
