Ben and I are so fortunate to have grown under the care and love of self-less and loving mothers. They helped shape (and continue to shape) who we are today and we are so thankful.
I like Stephanie’s post about Mother’s Day. I would definitely prefer it to be called Mothering Day because there are definitely a ton women out there who aren’t officially mothers, but still do a lot of mothering. My girls have definitely more than one mother in their life and I am so thankful for the other influences they have.
I hope your Mothering Day was full of joy and love!
I agree! I like to wish Happy Mother's Day to mothers and mothers-at-heart. I hope you had a lovely Mother's Day yourself, Rubyellen!
Hi Rubyellen, hopefully your Mother's Day was great? Our children decided that we will wait to celebrate it till their Daddy comes home on Wednesday (he's been away 3.5 weeks). I feel encouraged by one of your posts in which, I think it was, True said: do you love a clean house more than God? It has been in the back of my mind all weekend and it really made me think about this, especially when I'm really mad about the constant reappearing mess. Which post was it again? Thanks for your answer.
I love that “mothering day” it's perfect! Happy mother's day to you!! Even though I only know you through your blog, I can tell you're heart for your kids is big and you give them your all. Hope your day was wonderful!
Happy Mothering Day—which is everyday really! ~Deirdre
