Happy Mothers' Day

HAPPY MOTHERS’ DAY 





I would like to wish all mothers and women around the world who work, care, and nurture children, “Happy Mothers’ Day!” 

You may remind me that all women are not birth mothers. True.  This is not to relegate mothers to a back seat. I am always and foremost a mother, grandmother, and a great grandma. I am truly blessed.

 However, I believe that women immemorial  have loved, cared, and protected children whom they did not bear. In the present world environment, it is most important to recognize every woman who has reached out to a child and made a difference in his/her world. Furthermore, I would encourage other women to take an active part in advocating for children. 

As I see it:

CHARACTERISTICS OF A NUTURING WOMAN

Affectionate and loving
Caring
Compassionate
Advocating
Consistent
Empathetic
Playful
Attentive
Patient
Accepting, …

And so, I shall remind everyone that Mother’s Day/Mothering Day should be celebrated everyday with love and respect for all who treasure children.

Mother’s Day around the World: 

For in the final analysis, our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this small
 planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children's futures. And we are all mortal. John F. Kennedy
