A Mother's Day Reminder

With Mother's Day only a week away here in the United States I wanted everyone to keep a few things in the back of their minds when they are posting things about their day. There are mother's out there who never got to meet their babies, their are some mother's who had to give their babies back to Heaven, their are some mother's who never got to fulfill their destiny of being mother's. There are mother's who are mother's by adoption, their are mother's who share their children with biological mother's. There are mother's who feel a constant sting every day because they have suffered a loss of a child, and this day is just a reminder of exactly how painful it is going on without them. No matter what type of mother you are this day shouldn't be any less special for you. But to all you mama's out there suffering, to all the mama's that feel a pain I hope I never  have to feel, I hope you know that you are loved too. I'm sorry for your pain, and I am sorry you don't have your little one to wrap his arms around you. I'm sorry that this day shoves the loss you have endured in your face. But grieving mama, I want you to know that you are stronger than any of us are. For you had to give your baby wings, and here you are, still standing on your Earthly feet. I salute you today, and every day grieving mama. You are fighting a battle I know nothing about. To all the mama's that still have youngsters; remember to hold them tight. That it isn't just today that is special, it is every day you get to hold your baby in your arms that is special. Mother's day isn't about gifts, and presents. And some of us moms, I know I am included, want to just have a relaxing day sometimes "kid free". But please remember that their are mama's who want nothing more than to hold their baby's just one more day. So when that day comes, celebrate the life that gave you the opportunity to celebrate your day.


Don't ask for peace and quiet, because if that's all you had you would want nothing more than the sound of their voices back. Don't ask for a clean house, because someday when they are grown you will miss seeing their toys they once loved. Don't ask to be alone, they are only little for a short time; and someday you will miss those tiny hands and feet. Regardless of if you are a step-mother, a biological mother, or a mother who has suffered a loss, you are still a mother. And I hope you all know how special you are. You all have a job and never complain about it. You are all the most selfless humans that walk this planet. You all deal with things that some of us know nothing about. But the one thing we all have in common is that we love our babies with a fierceness that only we, as mothers, can understand. I hope all the mama's out their have a special day. But keep your neighbor in mind, keep in mind the battle they may be fighting. Be good to everyone you meet. And if someone isn't nice in return, maybe ask yourself why instead of assuming.
