💐 Mother's Day 💐
Today can bring so many emotions - for some it’s a day of celebration, for others a day of longing, sadness or grief.
The title “Mummy” isn’t held by just one kind of person. A mother figure can be the woman who gave us life but it can also be the grandmother who stepped in, the aunt who always showed up, the foster parent, the step-mum, the guardian who protected or the woman who simply chose to love.
Today and for as long as I can remember I've written two cards - that aunt whos always there - I'm lucky enough to have had that my whole life. Alongside having the mother of anyone's dreams - I will always know how extremely lucky I am.
Whilst the title "Mummy" is one I hear a hundred times a day, it's definitely one I will never take for granted.
Unfortunately, there are also so many people who dream of hearing that one word - “Mummy.” Those who carry that hope quietly in their hearts, navigating difficult paths with fertility struggles, loss or circumstances that make that dream feel far away. We need to always make these people feel seen and heard - especially on days like today ❤️
To the mummy's who have experienced the heartbreak of losing a little baba during pregnancy or the unimaginable pain of losing a child. Whether your child was held in your arms or only in your heart, you are still a mother. 👼🏼🪽
Mother’s Day isn’t just about perfect photos and flowers. It’s about recognising the deep, complicated and powerful love of a 'mother' that exists in so many forms.
To every mother, every mother figure, everyone hoping to become one and everyone carrying love for a child they can’t hold today — we celebrate you ❤️💐
