Title: Mother's Day
Post by: Carolyn Branagan on May 12, 2012, 12:09:15 PM

Mother's Day is coming.  I've heard rumors that some hate Mother's Day because they feel guilty for not being a perfect mother.  Think about this: Mother's Day is no more for celebrating perfect mothers than going to church is for celebrating perfect people.  We're all trying, and we should celebrate that we're surviving so far.
 Parenting, like many tasks in life, is best done in the midst of lots of communication and a good support system. You are not alone.Here's wishing you a Happy Mother's Day!
