***I wrote this poem for a good friend who I would try to help -- but who always ended up helping me more!

| Brigham and what I think was chocolate:-) |
You deserve a chocolate
Because you left your bed
To help your children find their shoes
And to make sure all were fed.
You deserve a chocolate
For smiling through your pain
And patiently explaining something
Again, and again, and again.
You deserve a chocolate
Because you tried to clean
When you'd rather have some cake
And maybe some ice cream.
You deserve a chocolate
Because you have a gift
Of listening to others
And giving them a lift.
You deserve a chocolate
For being a faithful friend
Who loves and cares for others
And helps their hearts to mend.
You deserve a chocolate
Because you are a mom
And this is one of those jobs
That goes all day and all night long.
You deserve a chocolate
For being a faithful wife
Who works to make a marriage
That can last for more than life.
You deserve a chocolate
For just being you.
You are wonderful for the good you say
And the good things that you do.
