Today is the day when we celebrate Moms and give thanks. Without Moms none of us would be here. Thank You!
To all the moms, grandmoms, stepmoms and women who are trying to become moms, THANK YOU!
For all the things you do that are seen and unseen; for all the choices you make that are known or unknown; for all the times you showed up very visibly – or even with purpose, invisibly; for every sacrifice, tear, laugh, choice and correction; for every moment that created a memory and every moment that sits quietly in the background that no one knows about except you, THANK YOU.
We, the beneficiaries, cherish you.
Today is a day of great appreciation, recognition and thankfulness.
Happy Mom’s Day!

Losing your Mother is something you never get over. So those of you whose Mothers are still with them, show them how much they mean to you.
I lost my mother in my 20s. She gave everything for us. In heaven, she’ll get to see her daughter-in-law, she never saw her lovely grandchildren she never saw, and they’ll fill her in on all the wonderful things she did not get to experience with them here on earth.
Yes. And prayers, even after they have left this world, are effectual.
Mother is sleeping in this morning, much deservedly. She just completed the last leg of the marathon of seeing our youngest child graduate from college yesterday. Well deserved rest after decades of faithful nurturing of our children. God over-blessed me with such a wife to share life with. May God be the glory for his lavish love for us.
Too negative?
Without Moms none of us would be here.
Without Moms we would not be here.
Or not negative enough?
Without Moms none of us would not be here, not!
Enjoy your moms everyone.
And thank her even if you lost her already.
Thanks, Mom!
“It takes two”, or more…is all I can think today as I see the Mother’s Day greetings. Yes, I’m a mom, and I appreciate the kind thoughts and words from so many. But I also know that without SUPPORT from my husband, family, friends, and heck–society at large–I might have succumbed to the despair cult of modern “culture” which has frightened so many would-be mothers away from such a joyful calling. I pray for all mothers today; thankful for loving embraces with which they raised their children. And sorrowful for those moms who were fooled by the empty promises of abortion and/or sterility; life alone with only regrets for dead children, killed before they were born. I apologize, sincerely(!) for such a somber tone, but also know this: Sometimes ALL IT TAKES IS ONE WORD of ENCOURAGEMENT for a young woman to choose life, and embrace the joys (and challenges) of motherhood. Thank you to all those who offer encouragement!
