"Mothers . . . care for, cultivate, attend to, watch over, look after, nurse, hug and kiss, count to ten, irritate us, get all mushy, make us proud, wash behind our ears . . . We don't need a dictionary; for most of us "mother" is the first word we ever learn. And besides being the name we call out when we're sick, afraid, or proud of our accomplishments, mother is a verb. So here's to mothers and everything they do. Snappy, not sappy! Mother Is a Verb is a beautiful, sweet, sometimes quirky, tribute to mom-hood that features quotes paired with mom-verb sayings. Each spread celebrates something mothers do! "To give quickly is a great virtue" is a Hindu Proverb that's paired with the truth we all know: "Mothers know what we need before we know it ourselves." And "The patience of a mother might be likened to a tube of toothpaste--it's never quite all gone" is shown opposite "Mothers squeeze us and we squeeze `em right back." Have truer words ever been spoken? * A tribute to always moving, doing, going-the-extra-mile moms! * A stylish gift for any mother--from new moms to grandmoms--for any occasion and just in time for Mother's Day.
