The lyrics from this song best describes my feelings. A mother's love should always be unconditional and her love for her three children was. I'll forever miss my 'backbone'.

I'm a puzzle yes indeed
Ever complex in every way
And all the pieces aren't even in the box
And yet, you see the picture clear as day

...I'm a host of imperfections
And you see past all that...
...You see potential in all my flaws
And that's exactly what I mean... 

I don't know why you love me
And that's why I love you
You catch me when I fall
Accept me, flaws and all
And that's why I love you
