Don’t they give you a gold watch after eight? You sound like my mom (the greatest compliment I can bestow). Can I come live at your house? No seriously, congratulations on managing three simultaneous pinochle games.

A bit of advice: I know you must love your husband very much. I love my cigar very much. But I take it out of my mouth every once in a while.

Angela, you certainly are an angel. I wish I had had a mother like you. My children and grandchildren together total only 12, and have been a blessing. But I couldn’t have raised them all together. Happy Mother’s Day.

And Commander, good Groucho Marx quote.

Oh My.

What a self serving letter.

Surely, you didn’t post this with the idea that people would donate more money to your ministry, did you?

The majority of it isn’t even original. It is pieced together from poems and prose from other authors. At least give them credit.

But, then maybe later you can ……, sorry, someone else, will send more letters to the Post praising you and your “heavenly” work.

And shame on STLTODAY for not checking to see if you had plagerized the majority of it. Well, I guess they can’t check everything.

Let’s hear it for Dads. Not only do they have to deal with the kids, they have to deal with the Moms!

I am amazed that this woman has the audacity to spew so much self-serving nonsense. Way to pat yourself on the back, Angela. I find it rather ironic that you, who claim to love children so much, are also the same woman who, if I am not mistaken, set out to ruin a Girl Scout troop\’s tea party by staging a picket featuring aborted fetuses several years ago. Angela, you\’re a real stand-up lady. Kudos to Highland\’s finest! Perhaps you should purchase a tighter belt to help you keep your trousers up.

Since when is motherhood a sport?

It is a job, a damned hard job. I only have four of my own, but then my husband and I knew when to stop. No Angela, there are no abortions in my history.

Self-serving does not begin to describe her letter.

You are not the only one who has had a hard time of life Angela, so stop acting like you are the only one who can appreciate it.

“How mothers love their children determines how they love others.”
Judging by your displays of love in public, some of which I have personally witnessed, you must be a real terror in private. (See stories on the St. Louis Komen Foundation walk and the Granite City parades, and others in years past.)

“Mom of 12″
My lord wasn’t eleven enough?

Stay in Highland and stop breeding already, for goodness sake.

Well I can see that you have read Robin Roberts “From the Heart: Seven Rules to Live By”

Could you quote any more of her book?

Or did you just open a book of quotable quotes about motherhood and put them in logical order?

While I applaud the attempt to laud mothers and motherhood.

I do have to say that this letter seems more like an attempt to laud the letter writer, (or whoever wrote the quotes) rather than mothers in general.
