On Friday one of our FDK classes hosted a Mother’s Day Tea. It was wonderful to watch the students swell with pride as they shared tea and scones with moms and grandmas. It was touching hearing the children share what they love most about their moms- a kiss good night, a clean blankie, playing outside – showing that even the littlest acts of motherhood can have a lasting impact on children.

Happy Mother’s Day to all moms! The role of motherhood changes from day to day and year to year. Being the mom of a kindergartener is different than being the mom of a teenager, with unique rewards and challenges at each stage. Just when you think you have it figured out, it changes. For me, motherhood is the biggest responsibility I have been charged with and yet the greatest gift I have ever received. I hope that you have a wonderful Mother’s Day.
