To all of you dedicated mothers, I wish you a happy mother’s day.
Yours is the most important vocation in the world. And unless you’re rich and nannied, it’s one of the hardest full-time careers. There has never been any such thing as a “non-working mother” aside from the idle rich (or the idle poor in some cases).
I hope you have a lovely day with your families.

At the risk of being maudlin, I wish I had a mother to give love to. I tried for many years, but it was not to be. For a long time, I loved my mother very, very much. It was a source of sadness that she never believed it, never accepted it, and did not return it.
So I wish the good mothers happiness instead. Motherhood is a good and pure thing, or at least it should be. Many of you exemplify it.
☺️Thank you! I wish my powers as a mother who did the best she could to raise a happy and successful son were strong enough to gas up the Way-Back Machine, and make your mom the kind of mother you could celebrate today with. But...on the other hand, and no thanks to your mother, but possibly because of her, you've become the kind of man I would be more than happy to call my son.🤗
