Mother’s Day Can Be Both Beautiful & Hard
Preparing a Grieving Heart for Mother’s Day
Mother’s Day is a beautiful day to celebrate one of the most beautiful things in the world, motherhood. Moms are appreciated for their sacrifices, their unconditional love, and their continual care towards their children. Good moms deserve every bit of that appreciation.
For some, Mother’s Day can also be a day of grieving. Some grieve the mother figure they never had. Others grieve the amazing moms that passed away. Some grieve over the broken dream of becoming a mom. Then, there are moms grieving babies lost in the womb, after birth, or their fully grown child.
Mother’s Day can serve as a hard reminder of what has been lost, but this doesn’t have to take away from the happy moms that have much to celebrate.
My Personal Feelings Towards Mother’s Day
I have an amazing mom and mother-in-law. I have an older sister that acted as a second mom throughout my life and continues to. Almost every single one of my friends in TN is a mom, and I love them and their sweet children.
