To Pet Moms on Mother's Day


I know this is a tough holiday for some people, including some of my friends. For all of you who hoped to have children but didn't, I just want to say ... if a living creature depends on you for love, security, safety, comfort, understanding, companionship, or any of the other millions of things that a mom provides with good cheer and dependability and (most of all) love, then you are part of the big wheel of life that is mainly steered by moms, (and Mr. Moms)... and although you won't get flowers or dinner or an aqua chenille bathrobe out of it, the love and gratitude isn't any less pure for being unspoken.

Ohhh, how sweet! My sister is mom to 3 cats, a snake and a tarantula but no children. She always comments on how having pets are like having children.

Thank you for a such a great post and Happy Mother's Day!

Thank you for posting this! Today can be a very difficult day for so many of us without children, but with wonderful furkids instead!

So true. My sister has the right idea. She gets herself a MD present from her kitties!
