Your Mama
แแ แแแฌแแแแแก แจแแกแแฎแแ
Yoโย mama so sweet, she could be a bakery. She dresses so fine, she could have aย clothing line. And, even when you mess up, sheโs so forgiving,ย she lets you keep on living.
Heartwarming and richly imagined, Your Mamaย twists an old joke into a point of pride that honors the love, hard work, and dedication of mamas everywhere.
