The Importance Of A Mother

 

While getting the Year 3 students to make their Mother’s Day cards and record a special message, it really brought it home to me how important a mother really is.

The students were so excited to make the card and discussed amongst themselves what their mother’s favourite flower is, what they love to do etc. It was so difficult for them to decide what made their mother so special. They had so many amazing reasons why their mom was special to them.

I looked around the internet to find the perfect way to explain how important a mother is, and I found something written by Dr. Ashock Verma. I really found his explanation true and profound in so many ways.

He wrote:
“Mother stands for someone unique:
M – Motivator and the Modulator of her kids
O – Omnipotent & Omnipresent for her kids
T – Teacher – she is the first & foremost teacher
H – Helper – she helps her kids in every way
E – Explorer – she explores the hidden talent in her kids
R – Reliable – she is the most trustworthy & reliable person”

There is really no other way to explain the importance of a mother than what he wrote.  Being a mother is such an extraordinary gift, one that keeps on giving. I hope that your Mother’s Day was just as special as mine.
