Ah, Mother's Day. The obligatory one day of the year (yes, just one ladies - you only get one, even if you were in labor for three freakin’ days!) that we as a society have agreed to dedicate to what may be one of the most essential roles played by women. How do we mark this momentous occasion?
To answer that question we’ve turned to our Midlife Shit Show community. We asked them to share their stories of the good, the weird, the touching, and wholly unfathomable ways in which they’ve been celebrated for months of carrying, hours of birthing, endless feeding, clothing, and pretty much ALL THE THINGING!
You’ll hear the story of a precious hand drawn card beautifully depicting mom’s c-section, bloody knife and all. That time a nursing mom was gifted toe socks with a cow-themed print… because clearly, toe socks alone aren’t bad enough.
We’ll celebrate those small, precious moments when you feel so seen, the earth-shattering time that teenager wanted to actually be with you. And, Lara’s personal favorite… brunch.
Happy day of the moms to ALL the moms out there… birth, adoptive, step, fur. You deserve so much more than one day!
