Happy Mother's Day


《游子吟》

慈 母 手 中 线,游 子 身 上 衣。
临 行 密 密 缝,意 恐 迟 迟 归。
谁 言 寸 草 心,报 得 三 春 晖。

~ 孟郊 (751-814),唐代诗人

Most of all the other beautiful things in life
come by twos and threes, by dozens and hundreds.
Plenty of roses, stars, sunsets, rainbows,
brothers and sisters, aunts and cousins, comrades and friends -
but only one mother in the whole world.

~ Kate Douglas Wiggin (1856 - 1923), American educator
