It&#8217;s an opportunity for us to share our thoughts on what it&#8217;s like to be a mother!<br \/>\nHere follow 10 of my favorite quotes, some of which are well-suited to send to our children; while some are better-suited to send to mother!<br \/>\n<em>God could not be everywhere and therefore he made mothers.  ~Jewish Proverb<br \/>\nMaking the decision to have a child is momentous.  It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.  ~Elizabeth Stone<br \/>\nSing out loud in the car even, or especially, if it embarrasses your children.  ~Marilyn Penland<br \/>\nWhere we love is home &#8211; home that our feet may leave, but not our hearts.  ~Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.<br \/>\nMothers hold their children&#8217;s hands for a short while, but their hearts forever.  ~Author Unknown<br \/>\nA Freudian slip is when you say one thing but mean your mother.  ~Author Unknown<br \/>\nSweater, n.:  garment worn by child when its mother is feeling chilly.  ~Ambrose Bierce<br \/>\nOn Mother&#8217;s Day I have written a poem for you.  In the interest of poetic economy and truth, I have succeeded in concentrating my deepest feelings and beliefs into two perfectly crafted lines:  You&#8217;re my mother, I would have no other!  ~Forest Houtenschil<br \/>\nA suburban mother&#8217;s role is to deliver children obstetrically once, and by car forever after.  ~Peter De Vries<br \/>\nThe moment a child is born, the mother is also born.  She never existed before.  The woman existed, but the mother, never.  A mother is something absolutely new.  ~Rajneesh<\/em><br \/>\nHow to make a mother&#8217;s day card:  <span class=\"mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-file\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/ourladyofweightloss\/Mother%27s%20Day%20Postcard.pdf\">Mother&#8217;s Day Postcard.pdf<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n1. Take a hard piece of cardstock (or postcard) that is approximately 4&#8243; x 6&#8243;. Or print out this Mother&#8217;s Day Postcard pdf template above.<br \/>\n2. Either type out and print quote that you love; or write it out in your best scroll.<br \/>\n3. Glue quote onto card.<br \/>\n4. Cut and paste pretty picture from a magazine onto the card.  Maybe a flower or a bird.<br \/>\n5.
