| H.R. No. 601 | ||
|
|
||
| WHEREAS, Around the world, people have set aside a day each | ||
| year to honor very special persons among us, the mothers who brought | ||
| us into this world, protected us, and taught us how to make our way, | ||
| and on May 8, 2011, Texans and all Americans will join in | ||
| celebrating Mother's Day in the United States; and | ||
| WHEREAS, It is fitting that Mother's Day should be celebrated | ||
| in the spring, when we see life renewed all around us; mothers give | ||
| life, and they give fresh starts, forgiving their children's | ||
| mistakes and wrong turns and encouraging them to persevere and | ||
| follow their dreams; and | ||
| WHEREAS, On this day, we pay tribute to mothers for their | ||
| stubborn persistence in seeking to give their children a bright and | ||
| promising future; resourceful, strong, and brave in this role, they | ||
| are indeed heroes in every sense of the word; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Motherhood can truly be called "the toughest job | ||
| you'll ever love," for it encompasses a tremendous range of | ||
| challenges, opportunities, frustrations, and joys, and the | ||
| ultimate rewards, intangible though they may be, are among life's | ||
| most meaningful and enduring; all mothers share a powerful bond in | ||
| the love they have for their children, and this love enriches our | ||
| world beyond measure; now, therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas | ||
| Legislature hereby commemorate Mother's Day 2011, honor all | ||
| mothers, including the members of this chamber who are moms, and pay | ||
| tribute to those mothers who have passed on but endure in the | ||
| memories of their loved ones. | ||
