Mother's Day Tribute Pt. 12 Hattie Mae Burth & Alonna McCrary

 
I honestly don't know where to begin with this tribute, you see this one is near and dear to my heart and tugs at all my emotions. These two women touched my life in their own special way and in them doing so is what makes it hard. No one every understand the relationship two people have and no one ever knows how their leaving Earth makes one feel. Although one help mold and shape me into the beautiful and successful woman I am today, the other one showed me that no matter what was said or thrown your way you can still come out on top and be a winner. Even though I feel both of their lives were to short here with us I know that their work here was done and they could do no more. One of them I cared for when she couldn't care for herself, homeschooling for a short while so someone could be home with her all day and allow the nurses to come. I sat, watched and listened to all they had to say and it was at that point I decided I wanted to help the sick and elderly in every special way, it was at that point when I decided I wanted to become a CNA because I wanted to be a source of comfort for those that were forgotten by their love ones. I wanted to take care of them for they had taken care of plenty. The other one we all feel her time was cut way too short and for reasons unknown to any of us she had to leave. There were times she made me mad but there were many more times when I was proud to hear and see some of the things she was doing. She was a wonderful, kind and loving young mother and she knew she had to work hard to take care of her babies. If she was your friend she had your back to the end, and if she didn't mess with you, you knew for she never sugarcoated anything.
With all that being said this tribute goes to two special women that were part of my life....

MISS ALONNA MCCRARY
 
 
While I honor my mother
with words of love and praise
While I tell about her goodness
and her kind and loving ways
I want to also Thank my Grandmother
she was a mother too you see
For she mothered by dear mother
and was even a better mother to me.
Words cannot express the love I still have for her
so glad I was able to show her my love was pure.
I cried when she passed away
and sometimes I still cry today
Although I loved her dearly
I couldn't make her stay
A golden heart stop beating
hard working hands went to rest
God broke my heart to prove to me
He only takes the best!!
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY GRANNIE I LOVE YOU
 
 
Mrs. Hattie Mae Burth

I thought about you with love today
but that is nothing new
 I thought about you yesterday
and the days before that too
I think of you in silence
and often speak your name
All I have are memories
with your picture in a frame
Your memory is my keepsake
with which I will never part
God has you in his keeping
I have you in my heart.
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY LOLA I LOVE YOU

 They say there is a reason
They say time will heal
I say neither time nor reason will change the way I feel
Gone are the days you both were here
But I know in my heart
you'll always be there
The gates of memories will never close
Both of you are missed more than anybody knows
I love & miss you both in a very special way
& with  that let me just say........
 
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

Mother's Day Tribute Pt. 11

 
 
 
 
This tribute goes to a beautiful first time MOM. Someone that is strong in her own special way, someone that is sweet as pie until you get her upset then you will feel her wrath. This young lady despite what kind of hand she was dealt in her life she was able to turn it around in her favor. She's a very bright and lovely young lady, and she defied all the odds that were against her graduated and is now attending college. I have so much love for her in my heart and there is nothing I won't do for her if I'm able. I am so grateful that I have been allowed to be a part of her from the time she was in her mother's womb. If she's your friend then she's your friend and you are blessed to have her in your life. She keeps to herself and don't bother with petty mess. She is not only beautiful on the outside but on the inside as well. This tribute goes to no other than my sweet baby.........
 
 

TIATIANNA RAGLAND aka QUISHA
 
 
Your eyes were bright and sparking
Your cheeks had a special glow
Your belly was being touched and rubbed
by people you didn't even know
You were craving weird and exotic foods
and calories didn't matter
You can't forget when those little elbows were in your bladder
You were getting medical advice from everyone you see
Let me say this
Welcome to the joyous days where your I's have became We.
 
New mom
New fun
So blessed
This one
Long nights
Short days
But would you ever go back, I say NO WAY!!
 
 
 
 
Zoe couldn't have asked for a better Mom
I love you Sweetie

Mother's Day Tribute Pt. 10

 
 
 
 
This tribute is dedicated to a MOM who despite any obstacles and setbacks she don't allow it to get her down. She picks herself up, dust herself off and come back stronger than ever before. She is someone that although we may not be as close as we desire to be we know there is nothing that will keep us apart if need be. She is someone so special that if she down for you she's down for you no questions asked. She has been wronged by many, misunderstood by plenty but no matter what it never affected her heart. She won't hate anyone when done wrong but she will love you from a distance. She knows her worth not only as a woman but as a MOM and that is the greatest thing in the world. When she walks in a room her presences demands attention without her having to speak a word. If you know her you love her and if you don't then you desire to be her. She is a 100% Diva Stallion and you better not say other wise.
This tribute goes to none other than my lovely and beautiful cousin
 
 
MISS CRYSTAL WARNER
 
 
You bless your kids life
and shield them from strife
You stop their flowing tears
and ease their growing fears
For all that you do
I know they are grateful to you
They adore your kind face
and admire your gentle grace
Let me say for them; Thank You on this Mother's Day
For being their bright, shining radiant ray
You illuminate sunlight
With a character that does what is right
Your kindness towards others
truly defines you as a mother
The productive kids they are today
Is a direct result of your positive ways
Let them learn from you the true reason why
unconditional love will never die.
I wish you many healthy, happy year more
I love you my dear sweet cousin to my core.
 
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY
and congratulations on your future bundle of joy!!

Mother's Day Tribute Pt. 9....Kela Ferrell

 
 
 
 
This tribute does not come from but was requested by someone who loves someone dearly.
He recognizes the beauty that is on the inside of her as well as the outside. He appreciates all that she has to offer and the hard work and sacrifices that she makes for her daughter to have a great life.
She is a hardworking mother who will do whatever she has to do to take care and protect her daughter
 
 
 
SO TAKELA FERRELL THIS IS FOR YOU....
 
 
 
 
My one rose for my love
One gift sent from heaven above
One MOM of the most beautiful child
One lady to drive my heart wild
One flame to warm me in the deepest cold
One Angel sent here for me to have and to hold
You are one to be treasured
but not as a possession
Who needs to be loved
not treated with aggression
Your value is more than all the world's treasure's
your worth can't even be measured....
 
 
Wishing you a HAPPY MOTHERS DAY

Mother's Day Tribute Pt. 8

 
 
This tribute goes to a lovely lady who has been in my life for a long time and I wouldn't trade her for the world. There were times when I needed to talk and vent and she was there just to listen. She has offered me advice I didn't want but she knew I needed. I know that if times get tough I can call on her and she will be there to help me. Though we no longer talk on a regular basis it still as not changed the relationship we have with each other, she will always be here for me and I will always be here for her. So it's only fair that I dedicate this tribute to the one and only.........
 
LETISA MITCHELL
 
 
God took the fragrance of a flower
The majesty of a tree
The gentleness of morning dew
The calm of a quiet sea
The beauty of a twilight hour
The soul of a starry night
The laughter off the bubbling brook
The grace of a bird in flight
Then God fashioned from these things
A creation like no other
And when His masterpiece was through
He had created you, a wonderful mother.
 
There is no love greater than that of a wonderful mom
You give so much of yourself without asking for anything but respect in return. Any kid would be proud to have you as there MOM.
I LOVE YOU!!

Mother's Day Tribute Pt. 7



 
 
Time and space separated us years ago, but it was written we should not stay that way. I can't tell you enough how much having you back in my life over this past year has meant to me. I know God truly answer prayers because before we reconnected through Facebook I had been praying to find you so that I may get to know my niece and reconnect with you. Not only did he allow that to happen, I was blessed with another niece and nephew.
 
So this tribute is dedicated to my sister from another mother and father.....

I know it's been a really hard task
the things that kids ask of you
You should know you're very special
for all the things you do.
I know that your kids are blessed
to have a loving mama like you
You are the centerpiece of their lives
their shining light in the sun
You can't be thanked enough for all
you have done.
You make them smile when they are feeling sad
You're one of the best MOMS a child could ever have.

Mother's Day Tribute Pt. 6

 
  
 A very special woman in my life right now 
The woman I know if it wasn't for her I wouldn't be here today.
A woman who has not only loved kids she gave birth too but also many others. A woman who has an undeniable love for all her 24 grandkids and 2 great-grand kids. A woman who may get on my nerves at times but I wouldn't trade her for the world. A woman who will give her last and go without just to help someone else that may have a need. A woman who is very special to me....
 
THIS IS DEDICATED TO MY MOM
MRS. CHARLOTTE BOOKER-HOUSTON
 
 
 
 
They say you can't choose family but despite the many downfalls
I feel rather blessed  that I was given a special MOM who stands out from the rest
She nurtured me the best she knew how through childhood and gave me sage advice
{even though it didn't stick}
Like to stop being so mean and try my best to be nice
As a teenager I know I was traumatic and gave her, her share of stress
But despite my temper tantrums and attitudes she never loved me less
As I grew up I flew the coup, moved away far and wide
I have always felt her wise words never left my side.
These days we don't spend much time together on our own
to simply talk about life and  I listen to her moan
No matter how far we are apart
THE LOVE I HAVE FOR MY MOM WILL NEVER LEAVE MY HEART.
