"... behind all your stories is always your mother's story, because hers is where yours begins."                                                  

                                                                                         ~ Mitch Albom    

May we honor mothers today,
our own mothers and all mothers.

May we appreciate their loving, 
their sacrifices, their journeys, their stories.

May we also remember that mothers are more.

May we value their fullness of being
and our own fullness of being,
whether or not we are mothers ourselves.

May we also recognize
that we can all bring sweet, nurturing mother love into the world.

With love for all,
Charlene
