Single Mom Poem

It takes a special woman to rise to the challenges of being a single mom.
It takes a positive attitude to remain optimistic when the going gets rough.
It takes a lot of self-confidence to stand strong
when it would be so much easier just to give in.
It takes belief in yourself and your family
to find the power to work towards a better day.
It takes tenderness of spirit and gentleness of heart
to respond to life's day-to-day changes,
with your total concentration focused on one thing:
the health and well being of your family.
Being a single mother takes a woman who has
a unique way of transforming life's difficult moments
into love's greatest memories.
It takes a wonderful mother like you.
