How Many Mothers Can Relate to This Song?

I'm posting this in honor of Mother's Day tomorrow. I'm not a mom yet but I can see myself uttering an awful lot of these phrases and I probably heard most of them growing up too.

Tone deaf but funny as hell!

Yeah, I don't think that she was trying to be Whitney Houston. Here's another one.

So many mixed feelz

So many mixed feelz

Yeah, but she wasn't bad though. This one always gets me emotional.






This one as well.





And while we're at it I might as well post this one too.

My Mom passed away when I was only 18 Months old or so. So, because both sets of grandparents took my brother and me in, we can either claim we really never had a mother, or we can make the case that we had several (including Aunts on both sides).

Growing up without a clear connection to our actual mom created in both of us a bit of an obsession for who she was, how different life might be had she survived, etc.

Now, after sixty years without her, I have a different image of her than I did when we were kids.

I lived a full life trying to make her proud. . . only to find out she did a few things (prior to passing) that probably would have made life equally hard, had she survived.

Life gets complicated, and it isn't fair.

I get it.

"Mother's day" is a great idea for those who have moms that they want to or can celebrate.

Not all of us do or did.

TMI?

No it's fine, but your mom can totally be whoever you want her to be. I'm adopted myself so I didn't come out of her tummy, but a mother isn't just somebody who gave birth to you, it's a whole LOT more than that.

Another tearjerker.

Indeed, I tried to say that.

Nothing but love for my Aunts and my Grandmothers who did the best they could.

I say that you were blessed to have so many women in your life who loved you. Oh and I'm sure that your mother would have been proud of you.
