Happy Mother's Day

I couldn't let the day pass without wishing a Happy Mother's Day to all mothers out there.

Thank you for giving us examples of how to be strong women.
Thank you for showing us that women can and do deserve to be mothers and have a career.
Thank you for "staying home" and caring for us even though the work of raising children is not valued as it should be.
Thank you for navigating adoption agencies and foster care systems to find us.
Thank you for bravely living life as a same sex couple, even with all the disapproval you faced.
Thank you for living life honestly as a mom, even though you may have been born with male body parts.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
