1. MOTHER’S DAY ASSEMBLY
Prep-Year 2

2. The Miracle of LOVE...
Before you were conceived, I wanted you. Before you were born, I loved you. Before you were an hour old, lying in my arms
...I would die for you. This is the miracle of love.

3. That moment...
...that everything changed
The tie which links mother and child is of such pure and immaculate strength as to never be broken

4. Mother, a very simple word ...but with a lot of meaning
When you look into your mother’s eyes, you know that that is the purest love that you can find on this earth.
Most of all it means LOVE
Youth fades, love droops, the leaves of friendship fall...a mother’s secret hope outlives them all
A mother’s love is patient and forgiving when all others are forsaking. It never fails or falters – even though her heart is breaking.
Being a full-time mother is one of the highest salaried jobs since the payment is pure love

5. In fact ...a mother’s love truly knows no bounds
They don’t tell you that...they don’t have to even be yours to love them.
Becoming a mother makes you the mother of all children, from now on each wounded, abandoned, frightened child is yours. You live in the suffering mothers of every race and creed, and weep with them. You long to comfort all who are desolate.

6. Before becoming a mother...
I had a hundred theories on how to bring up children. Now I have seven children and only one theory....
LOVE THEM – especially when they least deserve it.
