Summary: 100 Ways To Say I Love You Mother
Review: 100 Ways To Say I lOVE Mother is a heart warming collection of teachings, memories and experience written by James Watson about his mother. Straight from the heart, it is easy to read. Each page provides a profile of what a special woman the author's mother is. However, it is equally applicable to any mother who truly cares about her children.

Mr. Watson metaphorically presents a rose to his mother with each page expressing his gratitude and love for her. Indeed, the bouquet of one hundred roses reflected in 100 Ways To Say I Love Mother is a beautiful presentation. For children of all ages, who may have difficulty expressing their feelings, Mr. Watson has provided a beautiful bouquet of words and emotions for Mom.

As we struggle to grow from childhood into individual adulthood, there is often confusion about " the good mother" and " the bad mother". In reality, mothers are human beings and individuals just like anyone else. As psychologist and a mother myself, I know the struggle to accept and be accepted as Mom from both sides of the fence. The bottom line is that as long as our mothers and those of us who become mothers are "good enough" to pass on core values and the meaning of life to our children, that is all we can ask of our Mothers or ourselves.

Reading Mr.Watson's book, it is clear his mother more than passed the test in raising a son, and man, who can so clearly convey his love and the values learned from her in childhood.

Kudos to you, Mr. Watson, for presenting this book not only to your mother, but to those who wish to be express the same things to their mothers. And a special bouquet to you, Mrs. Watson, for raising such a loving son, who respects not only his mother, but his wife, his daughter and women everywhere. A job well done! Obviously, this book is only one expression of how James lives the lessons you have taught him-and I cannot think of a better way for him to say, " I LOVE YOU MOTHER"
