Happy Mother's Day

With it being Mother's Day weekend, I was thinking of my mom, of being a mom to my children, to the grandmothers in my children's lives, and to all the other moms who are out there in so many ways: aunts, friends of family, confidantes, and more. We are moms to our kids in our classroom, in the same way that female coaches are to their athletes, and day care providers are to their little ones. 

All of those thoughts led me to this poem by Denise McKay, which strikes a chord to the heart of what it means to be a mother.

Honor and celebrate all your mothers out there this Mother's Day.
