I always see social media posts when people want to single out a family member or friend to celebrate birthdays or holidays but I never participated in those myself. I never have a problem with those posts and it certainly doesn’t mean I don’t care when it’s my friends’ birthdays or anything like that but I never got that personal touch from those posts.

On Sunday, those posts were everywhere again as I saw people all over social media being grateful for what moms have done in their lives. I don’t get overly into any holidays usually and I’m not sure if it was the calendar showing Mother’s Day or the fact I have been stuck at home without getting to see my parents or grandparents for several months now but Sunday was not easy.
