RE: Happy Mother's Day for those who celebrate
thank you, people. this day was always a mixed bag for me. when my mother was alive i could NEVER get one of those sappy, saccharine cards that gushed about what a wonderful mother she was. i always found a humorous card that ended with a punch line.

it seemed to be a tradition in my church to always have people talk about mothers and motherhood on that day (we do not have a paid clergy to give sermons). i secretly dreaded that day for two reasons - it was painful to hear people go on and on about what a wonderful mother they had (something to which i could not relate)... and also i was terrified that some day i would be asked to speak on that day, and what would i say?

i am glad you have dinner plans with your friends. i hope it is a good day for you.
