A Mother's Day Thank You to My Wife

By Kelly Roper

The first time I looked in your eyes,
I could picture our children in my head.
I could see our life laid out before us,
And I knew we'd have a happily ever after.

Thanks for being the most wonderful wife
I could ever have asked for,
And thank you for being the best mother
To our children I could have dreamed of.

Madonna in Blue Jeans

By Kelly Roper

A Madonna in blue jeans,
That's what you are,
When I watch you with
our kids,
I see God's grace in action,
And I give thanks that
you're mine.

Tiny Hands Big Love

By Karen Frazier

Tiny hands
make big messes.
Tiny eyes
spill giant tears.
But through Mom's heart
she professes
Loving words
that soothe the fears.

My wife holds everyone
in her heart.
We feel her love
everywhere.
And even when
we're apart,
We're enveloped
in her care.

From Your Husband on Mother's Day

By Kelly Roper

A heart full of love,
A head filled with wisdom,
Gentle hands that soothe our child,
Lips that always speak the truth with kindness,
A beautiful soul filled with goodness and light.
What more could a man ask for in a wife and the
Mother of his children?

To me, you are perfection,
On Mother's Day and every day.

The Perfect Wife and Mother

By Kelly Roper

They say the perfect wife
and mother,
Is rarer than a unicorn.
So sit here with me on
your special day,
And let me polish your
golden horn.

Our Very Own Wonder Woman

By Kelly Roper

I don't know how you do it,
Holding it all together.
A full-time job, a houseful of kids,
And me, for worse or for better.

It's like you're Wonder Woman,
Gathering us all with your magic lasso,
Keeping us in line and things running smoothly,
You're the best, and we think you should know so.

If it were all left up to me,
I'd have us in a mess in no time.
But lucky for the kids and me,
You can fix anything and make it shine.

So here's to you my awesome wife
From me and our brood of heathens too.
We love you, we need you, and we're thankful for
The million and one things you do.

Heart of the Home

By Karen Frazier

Every heartbeat in my home
goes through my beautiful wife.
She is the center of all that we are
and all that we do.

When she breathes
so do we.
When she laughs,
we share her joy.
When she smiles,
it lights our way.

My wife is
the heart of our home.
She is the flame
we gather around.
She is warmth.
She is love.
She is home.
