MOTHERS DAY
Here is Canada we celebrate a day for mothers on the second Sunday of May each year. It is a day to honour the special love we have for our mothers and all those females in our lives who have mothered us over the years.
What I would like to do in this blog, is show you what a mother's love looks like in Mumbai, India, for our One! International children.
Our teachers, volunteers and older students all mother the children in the schools.
Her love is like
an island in life's ocean,
vast and wide
A peaceful, quiet shelter
From the wind, the rain, the tide.
'Tis bound on the north by Hope,
By Patience on the West,
By tender Counsel on the South
And on the East by Rest.
Above it like a beacon light
Shine Faith, and Truth, and Prayer;
And thro' the changing scenes of life
I find a haven there.

I will end this blog by sharing with you a poem I think universally describes a mother's love.
Mother's Love
Her love is like
an island in life's ocean,
vast and wide
A peaceful, quiet shelter
From the wind, the rain, the tide.
'Tis bound on the north by Hope,
By Patience on the West,
By tender Counsel on the South
And on the East by Rest.
Above it like a beacon light
Shine Faith, and Truth, and Prayer;
And thro' the changing scenes of life
I find a haven there.
