英语经典美文 为母亲祈祷  

一个女儿该怎样感谢她的母亲所给予的生命？感谢她在抚养孩子时所付出的爱、耐心以及无私的辛勤劳动？一个成年女子该怎样感谢母亲依然如故的角色？感谢她始终不变的爱心、体贴周到、耐心与宽容厚道？亲爱的上帝，请求你好好地保佑她……
在母亲节来临之际，谨祝天下所有平凡而伟大的母亲节日快乐！
Dear God

Now that I am no longer young
I have friends whose mothers have passed away. I have heard these sons and daughters say they never fully appreciated their mothers until it was too late to tell them.
I am blessed with the dear mother who is still alive. I appreciate her more each day. My mother does not change
but I do. As I grow older and wiser
I realize what an extraordinary person she is. How sad that I am unable to speak these words in her presence
but they flow easily from my pen.
How does a daughter begin to thank her mother for life itself? For the love
patience and just plain hard work that go into raising a child? For running after a toddler
for understanding a moody teenager
for tolerating a college student who knows everything? For waiting for the day when a daughter realizes her mother really is?
How does a grown woman thank for a mother for continuing to be a mother? For being ready with advice(when asked ) or remaining silent when it is most appreciated? For not saying:”I told you so”
when she could have uttered these words dozens of times? For being essentially herself—loving
thoughtful
patient
and fiving?
I don’t know how
dear God
except to bless her as richly as she deserves and to help me live up to the example she has set. I pray that I will look as good in the eyes of my children as my mother looks in mine.
