Another Mother

Aunt Molly
(written by Elaine on 5/9/10)

She holds us like she is....
She cheers us on like she is....
She calls us her children like she is...our mother.
She is Motherly.  Gentle.  Fun.  Playful.
She is tender and kind.
She teaches us how to love in our family.
She is the reason for so much laughter.
She is anticipation.
She is joy.
She is Aunt Molly...mother in another way.

I am not a poet, but these are the feelings and thoughts that came to my mind this morning as I pondered on the many beautiful mothers that bless my life.  Molly is one of them. She is my sister.
