A Mother's Love

[Lorenzo]

A little boy came up to his mother in the kitchen one evening while she was fixing supper, and handed her a piece of paper that he had been writing on. After his Mom dried her hands on an apron, she read it, and this is what it said:

For cutting the grass: $5.00
For cleaning up my room this week: $1.00
For going to the store for you: $.50
Baby-sitting my kid brother while you went shopping: $.25
Taking out the garbage: $1.00
For getting a good report card: $5.00
For cleaning up and raking the yard: $2.00
Total owed: $14.75

Well, his mother looked at him standing there, and the boy could see the memories flashing through her mind. She picked up the pen, turned over the paper he'd written on, and this is what she wrote:

For the nine months I carried you while you were growing inside me:
No Charge

For all the nights that I've sat up with you, doctored and prayed for you:
No Charge

For all the trying times, and all the tears that you've caused through the years:
No Charge

For all the nights that were filled with dread, and for the worries I knew were ahead:
No Charge

For the toys, food, clothes, and even wiping your nose:
No Charge

Son, when you add it up, the cost of my love is:
No Charge.

When the boy finished reading what his mother had written, there were big tears in his eyes, and he looked straight at his mother and said, "Mom, I sure do love you." And then he took the pen and in great big letters he wrote: "PAID IN FULL".



    Lessons:

       

          You will never how much your parents worth till you become a parent
       

          Be a giver not an asker, especially with your parents. there is a lot to give, besides money.

    Advice: IF your mom is alive and close  to you, give her a big kiss and ask her for forgiveness. If she is far away, call her. if she passed away, pray for her.

This one brought tears to my own eyes.

My mother is already deceased, this only brings back memories of the sacrifices
  she had done for her children, the pain of losing her will stay in my heart forever.

There is not a moment , a day, an hour, that I do not think of my mommy. Whenever I'm going through tough times as a Medical Intern, I always phone her and call her and release my burden to her.

I have cried to mommy because of the stresses. She took the time during work to give me hour to listen and to give me a motivating word of advice and prayerful message.

I am 25 years old, a grown man, but I will always cherish and shall cherish my close bond with Mommy.


God Bless all Mothers. Always.

[Lorenzo]

Mommy, I love  you very much.

The first person who I turn to when I am sick or suffering. Or lonely. Is my Mom.

Even in the most trying of times during my studies, when stress was mounting on me,

just to hear her voice brought me joy.

Truly, a Mother's Love is a representation of God's Love.
