28 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thu reday, May 10, 1962 Tributes To Mom I THINK MY MOM'S THE GREATEST BECAUSE ... I have found no other. person that will do so much for me. Even though she scolds me and seems very severe at times, it is soon forgotten, kind words and a hug shows me she loves me and iny Mom's the greatest person I have ever known s0 far in my life. Best wishes, R. T. Pickering. 1 THNK MY MOM JS THE GREATEST BECAUSE ... she rules the household with a strict, but gentle hand. She teaches and instructs me on anything I want to know that is within her power. I realize that I can obtain only a fraction of my Mom's time because I have six brothers and sisters. But even so, she takes a great in- terest in the things I do. She is my No. 1 chauffeur. That is, if the day is rainy, badly snowing, or extremely cold and windy, we (my brothers, sisters and I are given a ride to and from school, church, special classes and various clubs. She doesn't play favors with any of my bro- thers or sisters and tries to be fair. I try to pay it back by being helpful and consistent around the house, my friends and el- ders. S. N., Oshawa. I THINK MY MOM'S THE GREATEST BECAUSE... of the simple, unheroic acts she does every day, not just one or two, but more than that, much much more. As they say, "A woman's work is never done." How true it is! The house-cleaning, the meal-mak- ing, feeding the dog when we forget (as we always do), and) all the other drudgery a mother} does, makes her the key person in the home the one bright spark that keeps us going! ways doing nice things for us and is home when we need her. She helps us with our home- work if we need it. Sometimes she is our dictionary too. I think my mom is the best in all the world and I thank Gor for giving me to her. I think she's pretty, too. I love my mum very much, and tell her so every day but I want to tell all the world how much I love her, so I'm glad the Oshawa Times is givin me a chance to say a special "I Love you Mommy", on Moth- er's Day. eg 1 THINK MY MOM'S THE GREATEST BECAUSE .. . I think my Mom's the great- est because she's kind, ador- able, and just a living doll. she took care of us for five months before we came to Canada. My sisters and I were only young and Dad had come to Canada to find a job and a house for us. When we did come to Canada, Mom got a little baby boy which was more trou- ble than anything. She has gone through a lot of responsibilities than a lot of mothers, so I hope you understand why I think my Mom's the greatest. M.C., Oshawa I THINK MY MOM IS THE GREATEST BECAUSE .. . a few years ago my Dad took sick. He was in hospital for some time. We did not have much money. Relatives said they would keep my four brothers and I till my Dad was better. But my brothers and I did not like being did not have to. She said she would get a job and that way we would all be together. So when you read this letter, you will understand why I think my Mom's the greatest. J. G., Whitby D.R., Oshawa, Ontario I THINK MY MUM'S THE GREATEST BECAUSE ... I know I can always depend on) her when I need her. She may give me heck or lickings some- times but I know it's always I THINK MY MUM'S THE |GREATESTS BECAUSE... she sometimes lets me have what I want. She is very nice to me and my friends. Most of the time when I am exhausted for a very good cause. | She's kind to people as well] as animals and is ready to help) them anytime. She keeps the) house spic and span in winter or in summer. Mum likes birds, especially; budgies, and she taught ours to) say quite a few words. She also likes the colors of white, red and black and usually wears) skirt and blouse although she looks good in anything. | Her favorite flowers are red| roses and we keep a lot of them| in the house. She can play an accordion, organ, harmonica,} violin a well as many other} instruments. She sings good too. | She is a kind and gentle person not only to me but to the rest) of the family too, as well as feeding and clothing us. | If we get into mischief or| any sort of trouble Mom knows what's good for us and teaches| us right from wrong. She likes going to church and we go nearly every Sunday. To be really truthful, I don't think I could ever wish for a better mother in the whole world. P.M | Oshawa, Ontario | she comes to help me with my homework if I ask. Everytime I'm in trouble she is always near me to tell me what's right or wrong. Even if my mother does not do these things I'll al- ways love her and protect her if I can. That's why I think my mother's the greatest. | J. B., Oshawa, Ontario} 1 THINK MY MUM'S THE GREATEST BECAUSE... Mum does not give into me, and doesn't spoil me. Mum will not let me go out and stay around) the streets, which I am very glad for. Lots of times I don't want to go to church at night, but my Mum makes me. I know some day I'll be glad. On my birthday Mum gave me a party. In the summer Mum is going to let me go to camp. When I was a little girl Mum made me parted. So my Mom said we} I THINK MY MUM,S THE GREATEST BECAUSE... she works hard, she is careful, and plays ball with my broth- ers Billy, Bob and myself. She washes the clothes, makes the beds, shows interest. I go to Ritson opportunity class. Thank you. B. T., Oshawa Ontario. 1 THINK MY MUM'S THE GREATEST BECAUSE ... I think my Mum's the hardest worker. She advises me to do right. B. T., Oshawa Ontario. 1 THINK MY MUM'S THE GREATEST BECAUSE... she's the kindest, sweetest per- son I know. She works very hard to provide food and cloth- ing for me, and pay for the house in which I live. Although I get cross when I have to do| dishes and tidy up the house once in awhile, I know how hard) she works to keep me fed and) clothed, and I also know I will never be able to repay all I owe} her, so I don't mind doing the dishes and tidying the house up once in awhile, because I know) that makes her happy. I love; my Mom because she's the only) jone I will ever have, and I love lher mostly because she's my Mom. I sure think she's tops. | J. M., Oshawa Ontario. I THINK MY MUM'S THE GREATEST BECAUSE... she has worked so hard to fully support me since I was t wo) years old and we have been) pals, We go on trips, picnics) and to church together. She lis-| tens to my teenage problems| jand helps me to solve them. I) |know that I'm not very easy to) jhandle sometimes, but she 1s jalways very kind, patient, and) junderstanding. I sometimes) |want things which aren't good) |for me and she helps me to see| |what's best, it helps me to grow into a good citizen and kind, patient woman. I often feel as if she's dead against me when I can't get my own way but after I think about it I realize, it probably 'wasn't good for me and I can see her reason's for not giving me my own way. | Thanks to my mother. | M. H., Oshawa Ontario. 1 THINK MY MUM'S: THE GREATEST BECAUSE ... she is always here. I come home from school and when I want to go to the creek she will make me a minnow, net. She helps me with my homework when I have trouble with it. If I come home from the creek and had fallen in she) doesn't call me down but she} to undress, while she draws me) a nice warm bath.
