Mother's Day, It's Not Just for Mother's...
As Mother’s Day approaches it occurs to me that, while I have been extremely blessed with a terrific mom who has become my best friend in adulthood, not everyone is fortunate enough to enjoy the same as I do. For many, Mother’s Day is difficult and they do their best to weather it. I propose this: celebrate the ones who fill the role of nurturing and caring in your life whomever that may be. Take the opportunity the day called Mother’s Day gives to express your gratitude to whomever fills that role for you. Maybe that person isn't a blood relative, but they are family non the less. In my opinion, there is no reason to limit your celebration to just a ‘mom’, especially if that role is filled by another for you. Families come in all shapes and sizes, let’s celebrate them whomever they may be.
