As a woman, might I propose that you too are a mother! A mother is someone who wants a child to grow up to be a contented, strong and positive adult. A mother considers a child’s nature and responds to the specific needs of that child. A mother accepts a child for who she or he is, and forgives her child for their mistakes, no matter how immense or minor. A mother is there when a child needs her, whenever that might be. Mother’s Day is an occasion that can offer an opportunity to acknowledge one of the most important people in life - Mum/s. The day has a changed meaning for those whose mother has passed away, importantly it can be a time to celebrate loving and cherished memories with the women in our lives who have impacted us as a mum.
