With the kisses and hugs of the children, the mothers smiled.
Let’s share two poems the kids wrote to their mother:
Dear mom，
I have been with you for my whole life.
I always loved you.
You have given me birth.
Taking care of two kids is very hard.
It’s hard to let two kids be happy.
But you always make us happy.
You make us the best.
I have always wanted mother day to come
We Love you the most in the whole world.
Love, Lucas, your son
Dear Mom,
You have been around us since I lived
You took care of me
You loved me
You always make sure that I was happy
But today
Today’s the day I can say this to everyone
You are the one who gave birth to me
The magnificent miracle you made
A child is really hard to
Take care
Love
Make sure their happy
Listen to what they say
Play with them
Comfort them when they’re sad
And do everything a Fantastic Mom would do
Like the one I’m describing now
Love, Your daughter Vanessa
