Blessed To Be A Mother
BLESSED TO BE A MOTHER
I could have been a major -
but I chose to be a mother.
I used to make a living -
but now I'm making lives.
I've traded airmen's salutes
for children's hugs and kisses.
Instead of giving orders -
I'm giving all I am.
Thank you, Lord,
for the privilege of being a mother.
