A mother is patient and is not easily angered. She does not fly into a rage, but keeps her temper under control.
She is kind to her children. She does not envy them, wishing that she could have done all the things they get to do.
She does not boast about how much better she was as a child, nor is she proud. She is not rude and discourteous to her children, remembering that they are humans, too.
She does not embarrass them in front of others. She is the epitome of unselfishness.
A mother does not keep a list of her child’s mistakes, reminding him of all of them each time a new one is committed.
Instead of rejoicing when her child fails, she empathizes with him. She is filled with sadness by wrongdoing of any kind.
A mother always protects her children and draws them close when danger of any kind threatens them.
There is nothing they cannot face together.
She is not distrustful and suspicious; instead, she hopes for the best and never gives up hope.
She always believes in her child and expects the best of him; she always stands her ground when she defends him.
