It Takes a Village

They didn’t lie when they said this.⠀
It’s the most beautiful thing.⠀
It takes a village to raise a child, ⠀
from what I’ve seen. ⠀
Mothers are the world's most precious gift.⠀
Always know how to make you smile.⠀
Always know how to lift you up,⠀
when you’re down.⠀
⠀
She’s the one who can do it all,⠀
make it through the toughest falls. ⠀
She may not know how to do something,⠀
but I guarantee it’ll be learned. ⠀
She fights for her family day in & day out,⠀
her love is always earned. ⠀
⠀
It takes a village to raise a child,⠀
and sometimes she is that village. ⠀
I may not be a mother now, ⠀
but I sure know who I’m looking up to⠀
when my time comes around. ⠀
⠀
She is one in a million,⠀
an angel on this earth. ⠀
⠀
She’s a sons first love,⠀
a daughter's guide in showing her ⠀
her worth. ⠀
⠀
It takes a village to raise a child.⠀
She is the light inside whatever hurts,⠀
the warmth we feel when something works.⠀
⠀
She is a village.
