All this week I’ve been remembering again all of you who hate Mother’s Day . . . I KNOW YOU’RE OUT THERE quietly hoping someone will acknowledge you and/or that the day would hurry up and be over. If you grieve the loss of your mother, if you would give anything to be a MOM and aren’t, if you have lost a child, if your mother died way too young, if your child is sick, if you’re a single mother (or father), if you’re a widowed father (or mother), if you were mistreated by your mom, if you have been rejected by your children, if you were abandoned by your mother, if your heart has been broken and this day is hard, I’m praying for you!
I’ve posted the articles below many times so you’ve probably seen them, but if you haven’t, check them out!
