Some mothers never "birthed their children, but are excellent mothers. I am pretty sure that at least 90% of us who "birthed" and mothered, prefer to call it Mother's Day...I could be wrong. I have visions of animals birthing, and mothers, giving birth. Then there are grandmothers, who raised babies that were birthed and set aside for all kinds of reasons...it's complicated, and I ain't WOKE yet...it may never happen.
Like the military, we mothers know who we are, what we are and what we did....I would like a few do-overs in some of my parenting over the years...sure...but like most, we did the best we could with the information and life experiences we had at the time. Happy Mothers Day to all of you!
