I used to think of this day as something made up by Hallmarks. Maybe that’s true, but the origin isn’t as important as the sentiment.
Over the years since this blog started, we have met way too many parents who have lost their children. That’s just not how it’s supposed to be. We parents are supposed to outlive our kids. But when that isn’t how things pan out, then I’m confident the children are communicating from the other side through synchros.
Isabella Dove’s story made me cry. So did Debra Page’s story. And then there’s DJan, who lost two sons. The point of these two stories is not to depress anyone, but to urge you, as a parent, to give your kid a huge bear hug! Mother’s Day and Father’s Day should both be KID’S day!
Jake Kotze made a clever observation and Instagram cut-up image using the Interflora mercurial runner off their logo and saying, “Sweet transition from Mother’s Day today into Mercury Transit tomorrow”.

Thanks for the two links! Will take a look, Daz.
