I would like to extend a sincere Happy Mother’s Day to all of the true, genuine mums out there including my own.  To me, a Mother is not someone that just gives birth to you and tells you when to go to bed; when you have to come in from playing outside; to eat all of your vegetables or that you have to go to school even when you don’t feel like. A genuine mother not only teaches you honesty, integrity, love and respect but respects you as you develop into the person that you choose to be.

A true mum understands that you will not be a perfect person or the person that she wants you to be.  A good mother will raise a child of good moral and ethical fibre that will contribute positively to their entire community. She rears her children to be polite and understanding not just with her, their Father and their siblings but with the world around them as well.

When you come across anyone with all the aforementioned characteristics and more, you can say, and believe, that they had a genuinely good and nurturing mother figure supporting them as I have had.

***By the way, good parenting and nurturing is not limited to mothers but since today is mum’s day I will say…………………………………………………………………………………….

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY
