Today is one of the most memorable days on the calendar. It is Mother’s Day! Today, if you have a living mother, you are truly blessed. There is no one like a mother on this earth. I understand that not everyone has the blessing of a loving or caring mom, but the bible tells us to honor our mother. Giving birth is not the only way to become a mother. Some children have adopted mothers, aunties, cousins, grandmothers, or others who fill the mother role. They are worthy of honor also. “Happy Mother’s Day! 2023.”

So, today my dear readers, if you are a mother to anyone, regardless of the avenue that took you to motherhood, I honor you today. I pray that you receive pampering and so much love today. Love that will cause you to forget all the challenges you may have gone through as a mother. Additionally, those grandmothers helping you with the little ones know they appreciate the opportunity to be “Grandma.” To them, we say, “Happy Mother’s Day! 2023.”

Moreover, I thank God for the angel he sent me as a mother, Elvera Crawford. I could not have asked for anyone better. Love to you, Mom, in heaven! Furthermore, I am grateful that God did not leave me motherless but sent Mother Marjorie Edwards to embrace me as her daughter. I am also thankful for my Godmother, Queenie Bee, who is so special to me. “Happy Mother’s Day! 2023.”

As I close, I am so grateful for my three birth children, my daughter in love, and the many children he has given me. I would name them, but I don’t want to miss a name! Each of you knows who you are, and I love you dearly. Hearken unto thy father that begat thee, and despise not thy mother when she is old. Proverbs 23:22. “Happy Mother’s Day! 2023.”
