Mothers must be everything to everybody. For their children, they are the angles on earth that are there to doctor a scraped knee or to be the models of sterling inspiration when times are tough.
Today (Sunday, May 13) is Mother’s Day, and it is a time in which sons and daughters give back a big “I love you” for the time, commitment and care that all mothers devote to their children.
