Thank you, Mother, for all that you have done.
You took great care of your daughters and sons.
You loved us all from the very start
with your warm, kind, and loving heart.
Thank you, Mother, for being strong,
While trying to teach us right from wrong.
If anytime we had a problem,
you were there to help us solve them.
You'd lift us up when we were feeling blue.
Thank you, Mother, for we could always count on you.
You were such an awesome mother.
The love you showed was like no other.
Thank you, Mother for your dear, sweet love.
Now you'll watch over us from heaven above.

Thank You, Mother

My mother gave birth to two boys: Stephen and me. She was our source of joy. She used to joke to us when she felt we were down. She used to motivate us and also challenged us to embrace whatever life brings. She had been sick for three (3) years. She took bitter pills. I spent all the money I had kept from my teaching job since my father had died about 28 years ago. I went to visit her one Saturday. I fed her and even told her I would be back, only to be told after 3 days (March 3, 2020) that she had passed away. My mum was real. She stood for justice.
Mum(Abena Mansah), gone but not forgotten. You'll forever be in my heart. Love you!
