My Friend, Mom ©
When I left home for school that day,
I didn't know that far away,
I'd look back now and miss you so.
and back to you, I'd wish to go.

You are my mom and yet my friend.
With you, I never need pretend.
You give your time to talk to me.
And give advice so lovingly.

When I'm a mom, I wish to be
A mom like you have been for me.
For you have shown your love for me
And now you are a friend to me.
