Most people celebrate Mother’s Day, honoring their own mother. But today would also be a good day to celebrate Mothers’ Day—a day to honor all mothers, everyone who does the difficult and loving work of preparing a new generation to take their place in the world.
Who will you honor this Mothers’ Day beyond your own mother?
I will visualize the teachers who work in the inner-city elementary school where I volunteer. I honor them because the work is hard, unheralded, and underpaid.
