My Reflection of Mother's Day

I have landed in the world of adult children and there is no holiday like Mother’s Day to bring a little reflection. Mother’s Day has always been very special to me since it has always been my favorite responsibility. I have always felt honored to wear the title of mom. Most Mother’s Day role like routine, however, this one called for a transition. Maybe it was the fact that for the first time one child was missing as he pursues his own passion on the other side of the world. Maybe it was the goodbye at the end of a meal, watching them all leave with their own children back to their own homes. Maybe it was the little hands of grandchildren I held as we strolled through the park. Either way this Mother’s Day inspired the realization of change but also reminded me of the importance of value. My role as Mom looks very different today, instead of influencing three I influence seven. As I looked around the table today although my day to day responsibilities have changed my role that we celebrated today has multiplied. The reflection of today made me realize this huge value I still play in the lives of my children and the opportunity I have, as my role of mom, continues to grow. Celebrate Moms day every day because the value of your voice, the importance of your touch, and the security of your presences is always needed. Happy Mother’s Day!
