Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day may have first been promoted as a way to sell greeting cards.  But it has certainly developed into something more.

Appreciation.

How often do we show it to those close to us who deserve our gratitude, not for whom they are, but for what they mean to us?

So it’s nice to have a day formally recognized to honor mothers.  In a real sense, this is a day of thanksgiving – to acknowledge the innumerable ways and efforts that the vast majority of moms dedicate to the welfare of their children.

Give thanks to your mother every day but especially this one.  And if she has departed life, say a special prayer in remembrance.
