Four foremothers. They get equal time now with forefathers, thanks to the movement begun about 1970.
Boo-yah!!!
For Mom is a jolly good fellow...
And so says Uncle Mouse.

My mom in the late 40's. She and my dad met in Yosemite Valley, go figure. She worked as a secretary for the Park Service, my dad was a bellhop at the Ahwahnee.

My mom died in my mind when she abducted me and my younger brother in a schitzophrenic episode when I was twelve years old.
I still see her now and again, but she's no mother.
Be thankful for your mothers, not all of us have that privilege.

I totally agree not all Mom's are mothers and... Not all mothers are genetically related to you. The act of being mothered can come from anyone, from any age, sex, and any species.
I have been well mothered by my dog. I have been mothered by friends, by even a small child who brought me a band aid when I cut myself. My biological "real" mother was a very interesting and intense person. She was a great Mom on some levels and others... Well, she was sometimes a lesson on what "not to do." All I can say is I have chosen to remember the love, her dedication to me, her desire to do what was right and this does matter. What I am choosing to remember makes me a better person, I'll take the good and the bad... Well, why put energy there except to make sure not to repeat it.
Plus there are tons of folks that help raise me, even today... To all folks who have mothered me through some interesting times, helping ME "do it right." Thank You!!!
Here's to all those that mother us.

hey there say, anastasia! thank you so much!!
my grown kids, i had to leave behind when i had to get away from their dad, which was a long hard story, though i stayed for the whole years of their childhood, ...when a 'danger' time' began to keep growing, and friends helped me leave, well:
my kids rarely even say a fast hi, if at all (on the facebook) ... i never hear from them, and their dad played a major part in all that, as i am now the 'bad one' for leaving their home, :O
no amount of sharing, love or, trying to communicate, ever helped, so i have to just let it sit, now, and have for the last few years...
but--due to god's grace, i have so many 'children' that love me as if a mom, and many gals like YOU that i have nutured and share kindness with...
so:
this is my sweet mother's day from god--it comes everday, from all you all, and in a sense, kind of being a 'mom' here at the ol' taco, too,
keeping all the climbers in mind, as to prayers-on-their-journies...
:)
thus-- you, and my OWN mom, have made me a good solid and special mother's day, these last few years!
thank you!!!!!
god bless to all the moms..
and bradon-....
thank you for your story, a hard one to share... i know some little children in a situation that i can't share of, and they are NOT having a good mother time in their childhood and it is very very sad...
no one is able to help at the moment, so it is all we can do to pray, now...
i am glad to see you made it through that hard time... and i am praying that these young kids make it through their hard time, now, too...
at least they have a father to hopefully keep tabs there, but he may not be able to do much for them, only time will tell...
for all of you that know families like this...
let's keep 'mom's that need serious help' in our prayers so that that something can get into those homes and help the kids... :(
when it is not our home, not much can be done... :(
