The love we share as mother and child is a bond of the strongest kind.

It is the love of the present, interwoven with memories of the past and dreams of the future.

It is strengthened by overcoming obstacles and facing fears and challenges together.

It is having pride in each other and knowing that our lives can withstand anything.

It is sacrifice and tears, laughter and hugs.

It is understanding, patience, and believing in each other.

It is wanting only the best for each other and wanting to help anytime there is a need.

It is respect, a hug and unexpected kindness. It is making time to be together and knowing just what to do and say.

It is an unconditional, forever kind of love
