Always my champion, Mom has been my staunchest supporter and ally, in everything I've undertaken. When others failed me, she's always been there with warm words of support. She's been the first to celebrate my victories, and always been my guiding light in my darkest hours ...

More than a Mother, she is is a close friend and confidente. A beautiful, strong woman, who radiates sunshine and warmth all around her when she laughs or smiles ~
Christened Rose-Blanche, which means white rose, she could not have been called by a sweeter name! She wears it so well, because she's the Sweetest Rose I know!
"A mother holds her children's hands for a while...their hearts forever."

Alas, I'm not a professional writer, and far from being a clever wordsmith! So I've tried to find words that could express my feelings for her from the many beautiful things have been said about mothers ...
"A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials, heavy and sudden,
fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends
who rejoice with us in our sunshine, desert us when troubles thicken
around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts
and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts."
~ Washington Irving (1783-1859)
