An Above Rubies reader sent this poem for us to enjoy. Yes, we as mothers are teachers. We are the best teachers. And we have so much to teach our children.
TEACH ME, MAMA
Mama, teach me how to comb my hair,
Teach me how to wipe the chair.
Mama, teach me how to make my bed,
Teach me how to wash my head.
Mama, teach me how to clean the tub,
Teach me how to sweep the rug.
Teach me how to pay the bills,
Teach me how to cook our meals.
Teach me, Mama, how to sew,
Teach me how to wear my clothes.
Teach me how to be a lady,
Teach me how to care for a baby.
Teach me, Mama, sweet words to say,
Teach me, Mama, how to pray.
Teach me how to find a godly man,
Teach me how to help him stand.
Teach me how to help someone in need,
Teach me how to be a friend indeed.
Teach me how to read my Bible,
Teach me how to fight life's trials.
Teach me, Mama, what to do,
Teach me, Mama, to be like you!
