Somehow she was there

Somehow she furthered my education

Somehow she bought me things I needed

Somehow there was always food on the table

Somehow there was an implied or spoken I believe in you

Somehow we always got our present even if two or three years later

Somehow she made things better

Those somehows were always within the limits of the law

Because somehow she maintained the law

Because if you lied it was always a worse punishment

Regardless of how, I still love you mom
