I think the majority of my watchers are not from Australia, Mothers Day here is coming up on the 12th.
I thought it might interest some to know that Mothers Day was founded by Bereaved mothers. Mothers who had lost their children.

[link]Hallmark has got it completely wrong.
"Our society can commercialize all they want. Because in my heart of hearts I know the real meaning of this day came from pain, loss, and grief -- the same things I feel on any given Mothers Day. And from now on, when people urge me to celebrate the day, I will tell them this:
I'll celebrate with you as long as you will first mourn with me. It is the combination of the two that lends itself to the true meaning of Mothers Day!"
