A VIRTUOUS WOMAN AN EXCELLENT MOTHER
10- “Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. 26- She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. 27- She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. 28- Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.”
These are some of the people who wrote, made a comment or said something about their mother or about mother’s day. They are the people who became great and famous and people who made history. (Some of the quotations were taken from Yahoo search.)

It is very true; mothers have a special place in the heart and mind of their children. It’s a spot that not one could understand and no one could take upon but his or her mother.
