this song is kinda like what my mom had to endure...... My mom was the greatest mom ever.... She never gave up...
She’s in the kitchen at the crack of dawn
Bacon’s on, coffee’s strong
Kids running wild, taking off their clothes
If she’s a nervous wreck, well it never shows
Takes one to football and one to dance
Hits the Y for aerobics class
Drops by the bank, stops at the store
Has on a smile when I walk through the door
The last to go to bed, she’ll be the first one up
And I thought I was tough
Chorus
She’s strong, pushes on, can’t slow her down
She can take anything life dishes out
There was a time
Back before she was mine
When I thought I was tough
We sat there five years ago
The doctors let us know, the test showed
She’d have to fight to live, I broke down and cried
She held me and said it’s gonna be alright
She wore that wig to church
Pink ribbon pinned there on her shirt
No room for fear, full of faith
Hands held high singing Amazing Grace
Never once complained, refusing to give up
And I thought I was tough
Chorus
She’s strong, pushes on, can’t slow her down
She can take anything life dishes out
There was a time
Back before she was mine
When I thought I was tough
She’s a gentle word, the sweetest kiss
A velvet touch against my skin
I’ve seen her cry, I’ve seen her break
But in my eyes, she’ll always be strong
There was a time
Back before she was mine
When I thought I was tough
My mom was so tough.....

Oh man Camille that song was sooo sad it almost made me cry. That song almost seems like it was made for your mom. I hope you remember I'm praying for you to stay strong in God I love you sis :)

great song camille! I still remember your mom volunteering to plan my family's meals for us when my mom had surgery, though she was still not feeling well! She was so strong and willing to serve no matter how she felt!!
Good song... I think of your mom every time I hear it.
I love you! :)
