As we celebrate Mother’s Day, it’s important to recognize the sacrifices and hard work that mothers put in for their children. However, it’s equally essential to appreciate what mothers don’t sacrifice. So, we would like to take a moment to thank all the mothers out there for not sacrificing:

Your strength: Being a mother requires physical, emotional, and mental strength. By not sacrificing your strength, you are teaching your children to be strong and independent individuals.

Your individuality: Each one of us is unique, and we raise our children based on our differences. By maintaining your individuality, you are showing your children that it’s okay to be different and to embrace their true selves.

Your passions: Pursuing your passions helps you stay happy and healthy, and it teaches your children to pursue the things that make them happy in life. Whether it’s a career or staying at home to raise your children, your passions are an important part of who you are.

Your power: As a mother, you have the power to make decisions for yourself and your children, and to guide them through life. Your role as a mother comes with more power than you may realize.

Your ferocity: Only you know your children for who they are and how they function in the world. By advocating for them every day, you are showing your ferocity and strength as a mother.

To all the strong, passionate, powerful, and ferocious mothers out there: thank you for educating the next generation in the ways of true motherhood. Your efforts are immensely appreciated. Happy Mother’s Day!
