Obviously they’ve never met my mother. Probably not their mothers, either.
God knows I wish I could! She passed almost a year ago. I called her almost everyday and she could definitly calm me down if something terrible was going on.
I thank god for the day that she walked into that foster home with the social worker and literally saved me.
She was a woman who never in her life gave birth....but she mothered more children than I can count.
Obviously, they didn’t take MY mother into account, lol. Just joking. Sorta.
We have an advertising poster at work that’s ‘selling’ hydrangeas for Mother’s Day. It says, ‘A Great Mom is Worth Every Petal.’
I added a post-it to it one day (this is not where customers can see it) that read, ‘...And a Bad Mom is Worth a Call to Social Services!’ ;)
Not all of us are blessed with good Moms, but we have to do the best we can. :)
