This Week...Celebrating Mothers and Those Who Are Mother Figures
This is going to be a tough Mother’s Day for many...recent losses as well as mothers who must stay sheltered in their senior living facilities.
Mother is a verb. It’s something you do. Not just who you are. Dorothy Canfield Fisher
Our family celebration is pushed back to join our Easter festivities that were postponed. As it stands now, we may be celebrating Easter, Mother’s Day, several birthdays, and Memorial Day at our family dinner.

Mother’s love is peace. It need not be acquired, it need not be deserved. Erich Fromm
I’ve been lucky in my life to have had a loving mother, a very strong grandmother (after whom I am named), and an aunt who influenced me as much as my mother did.
Motherhood is the exquisite inconvenience of being another person’s everything. Unknown
There have been women in my life as well who were mother figures to me even though they may not have been even old enough to have been my mother. They taught me, inspired me, encouraged me, and supported me through situations in my life...and for them, I am extremely grateful.
Sometimes I open my mouth and my mother comes out. Unknown
Happy Mother’s Day to all of the mothers and mother figures out there. If you are fortunate to have your mother still with you, you are blessed.
If you have mother figures in your life, I hope you’ll take the time to tell them how much you appreciate them.
Have a wonderful weekend celebrating all mothers.
