Let us not use the apostrophe to make the day belong to one mother – instead let us recognize, with love and gratitude, as I do, the woman who gave birth to me, and loved and nurtured me for the first nearly six years of my life….
Theresa Catherine Cresto Downs
1903 – 1953
…and all the other women who have also loved and nurtured me along the path of my life to this day.
Happy Mothers Day to you – one of the other women who have loved and nurtured me. I feel so blessed!
