Hari ini my wonderful Ibu genap berusia 65 tahun.. Sayang beliau ada di Jakarta, sementara saya sedang jauh dari rumah.. Sedih juga sih ngga bisa kasih selamat secara langsung.. Tapi walaupun jauh di mata, tetap selalu dekat di hati.. Dan biasanya kita selalu punya hubungan batin yang kuat satu sama lain.. "SELAMAT ULANG TAHUN, Ibu! Wishing you always love to surround you, peace to be with you, beautiful moments to cheer you, and happiness to fill your heart. May God´s blessings surround you on your birthday and always!"

* A WONDERFUL MOTHER *

God made a wonderful mother,
A mother who never grows old;
He made her smile of the sunshine,
And He molded her heart of pure gold;
In her eyes He placed bright shining stars,
In her cheeks, fair roses you see;
God made a wonderful mother,
And He gave that dear mother to me..

You filled my days with rainbow lights,
fairytales and sweet dream nights
A kiss to wipe away my tears,
gingerbread to ease my fears
You gave the gift of life to me,
and then in love, you set me free
I thank you for your tender care,
for deep warm hugs and being there
I hope that when you think of me,
a part of you, you'll always see..

From seeds you watered us
As we sprouted you helped us grow
With the warmth of your radiant love
Along the way you trimmed us
To keep us safe from harm
When we grew out of our little pods, you replanted us
Where you gave us hope and showed us faith
That we may be able to do for others as you did for us..

"And Allah has brought you forth from the wombs of your mothers - you did not know anything - and He gave you hearing and sight and hearts that you may give thanks."
