1. Not all Mom posters here want people to know they are female. For reasons of harassment.*
2. Mom posters might have been out and about and busy or having a day to themselves on Mother's Day. Essentially not here.
3. Mom posters might be grieving on Mother's Day.
4. Mom posters might be having a disappointing Mother's Day and don't want any reminders.
Being a Mom can be such a wonderful thing until it's not.
Being a Mom might mean not everyone here has a good relationship with their child(ren).
Being a Mom means you might want to be social and celebrating with your children or just need some time to yourself.
Being a Mom might mean you are separated from your child(ren) by distance and Mother's Day is hard for you.
Being a Mom means you might be grieving the loss of a child.
Being a Mom means you might be overcome with grief for your own Mother on Mother's Day Eve like I was. I was a mess all day long!
Being a Mom might mean you are longing for a child who hasn't come into your life yet and this day might be hard to get through.
I don't think I left anyone out! Essentially, Motherhood can be a total mixed bag. I can say that I myself have had all kinds of Mother's Day (some great and some not so great) and many from the above list!
Thank you for your well wishes, Mok. Much appreciated!
*We typically know who the other ladies are and wouldn't "out" them for all the tea in China or my pantry.
Good point, they always mention this in church, and those calendar people take note of this day.Dr. Shades wrote: ↑Wed May 17, 2023 6:30 amOr we have already been inundated with similar messages in every other venue.
I'm not a mother, so I assumed you weren't talking to me.
