Happy Mother's Day 2022

The question, “What are you doing for Mother’s Day?” used to prompt anxiety.

It’s a festive day for many, it’s also a day tinged with sorrow for those that have lost their mothers, women who aren’t moms by choice or infertility, mothers who have buried children or those who’ve experienced harming childhoods.

Let’s honor those who may not have taken a traditional path to motherhood, but helped raise, influence or love a child.  All mothering, biological or spiritual, should be honored. It is not only a biological parent that can reach “a level of love and self-sacrifice.”

Today we honor and acknowledge someone special in your life, who may not have taken a traditional path to motherhood, but helped raise, influence or love you.  Happy Mother’s Day!
