Because you have shown me what love is for,
and the love that two people can have for one another,
you have shown me how to be a devoted wife,
and of course, how to be a wonderful mother.
I'd also like to say Happy 75th Birthday,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, <NAME>, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to our everlasting love, for evermore.
I took care of your dad until he had to go
and your mother when she was very ill,
I guess I step in so you don't have to,
I always try to protect you (and I know that I always will).
Because he is such a perfect individual,
and truly, he is our dreams personified,
and I know he couldn't have chosen a finer mother,
I know he couldn't - even if he'd tried.
I also wanted to say "Happy Birthday",
but there's a few other words that need to be said,
because I know I'm a hot tempered guy,
and some times my tongue gets easily led.
I also wanted to thank you for (NAME) and (NAME),
I think of them and my heart swells and fills with pride,
and I know they couldn't have chosen a finer mother,
I know they couldn't - even if they'd tried.
So Happy 75th Birthday,
That's really what these words are for,
here's to you, (NAME), you're truly wonderful,
and here's to our love, for evermore.
I loved that dress so much I wanted to wear it everyday,
even if it had a stain on it just below the chin,
I had a very strong nature with my own ideas,
my mother was exasperated, because she knew I'd win.
Because you're the mother to so many children,
and I've discovered your true and honest worth,
and I know that I'm blessed to have shared you,
I'm the luckiest nurse on planet Earth.
Ah, Mignonne, in how few hours,
The petals of her purple flowers
All have faded, fallen, died;
Sad Nature, mother ruinous,
That seest thy fair child perish thus
'Twixt matin song and even tide.
And we just wanted to say Happy New Mother's Day,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, (NAME), Mom, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to our everlasting love, for evermore.
My mother has been my inspiration,
she has guided me throughout my life,
and there are some words that I need to say,
especially now that I'm a wife :)
Grandmother always had a joke for us,
she was full of vim and vigor and the joy of life,
she was a wonderful mother and grandmother,
and of course, she was a loving and dedicated wife.
Grandmother always had a joke for us,
she was full of vim and vigor and the joy of life,
she was a wonderful mother and grandmother,
and of course, she was a loving and dedicated wife.
So I think we'll finish by saying Happy 60th Birthday,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, Dad, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to staying a big kid, for evermore.
And I also wanted to Happy 80th Birthday,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, (NAME), grandmother, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to at least another eighty more!
However, it wasn't shining so brightly on your birthday,
if I recall (you won't remember), you were twenty one,
so wasted, you had to be carried up the stairs by a friend,
that night, certainly, your drinking days were done.
