Mother's Day

What can you say about the role of a mother that would even come close to recognizing the scope and scale of being a mother?

A few thoughts on the topic on this Mother’s day.

Mother’s were 24 X 7 X 365, before we even knew what those numbers meant.

To say that Mother’s make sacrifices to care for their children is the understatement of all time.

Could anyone know you better than your mom ?

This time of year there are always calculations on how much a mom would make in salary if they were to be paid a fair wage. The numbers always seem low and do not do justice to the priceless efforts of moms.

While there has been “progress” in the area of sharing family and household responsibilities between mom and dad, we have a long way to go.

As we raise our sons and daughters, the examples we set as parents will help move the “progress” faster and further.

I am so fortunate to be married to a beautiful and wonderful mom.

To Mothers everywhere, Happy Mother’s Day !
