To the Heart of the Home: A Mother’s Day Reflection



Today, let’s pause

Not because Hallmark told us to, not because the brunch spots are full, but because deep down, we know: she deserves this day—and a thousand more like it.

Mother’s Day isn’t just about flowers or cards (though those are nice). It’s about honoring the quiet strength, the late-night pep talks, the scraped knees kissed better, and the unwavering belief she placed in us—even when we didn’t believe in ourselves.

A mother is memory keeper and future builder. She’s the reason we stand tall, the voice that told us we could when the world said we couldn’t. Whether she gave us life, raised us, loved us from near or far, or stepped in when we needed her most—she shaped us.

And maybe your mother is no longer here, or your relationship is complicated. That’s real too. Take a moment to honor whatever form love took—or still takes. Maybe it’s in a handwritten note tucked away in a drawer, or a recipe passed down through generations. Maybe it’s in the way you show up for others.

To all the mothers, stepmothers, grandmothers, aunties, and stand-in moms who fill this world with grace and grit: thank you. For every sleepless night, every hard decision, every fierce defense of your children’s hearts—you are seen.

Happy Mother’s Day.

You are the heart of the home, and today, we celebrate you.
