The Role of a Mom

Happy Mother’s Day to all moms. Being a mom is a life-changing role that comes with responsibility and joy. It means nurturing, caring, and loving a child unconditionally. Being a mom involves more than just giving birth; it encompasses an committed grounded in the emotional, physical, and spiritual aspects of raising a child. Therefore, it is important to celebrate all the women, who have fallen in that role, serving as grandmothers, aunts, friends, cousins, sisters, and godmothers. For some, the teachers and counselors also serve in this role.

When you think about it, being a mom or serving in that role, is about guiding, teaching, imparting valuable life lessons, and instilling values and principles that will shape their character. It requires we serve as role models, lead by example, displaying kindness, empathy, and resilience.

Ultimately, being a mom is a lifelong commitment. This role transcends time, and the role model must weather the ups and downs associated with that role. For the mothers, aunts, cousins, grandmothers, godmothers, sisters, and family friends, serving is this role is a remarkable experience. Happy Mother’s Day and enjoy your day.

Celebrating Mothers

april-723028_1920

Mother’s Day is a time for honoring mothers, motherhood, maternal bonds, and the impact of mothers in our society. In my previous Mother’s Day Messages, Posts, and Videos, I always include godmothers, aunts, cousins, teachers, grandmothers, and sisters. I wanted to remind individuals that Mother’s Day is not just a day for celebrating Mothers, but for honoring all the women in your life that have loved and supported you.

For some of us this year, due to covid-19, our celebrations will be different . Yet we can still honor our moms and others who matter. This weekend let your mom know just how much she means to you. Send a note to someone who has helped you, or who has played the role of a caring mother and thank them for their maternal bond. Call, or send a text to someone you have not spoken to in a while and brighten their day. In honor of Mother’s Day, I have prepared a video just for you.

Happy Mother’s Day,
