Loving is the whole point of course. 

And this is especially for everyone who isn’t a mother of physical children. For everyone who wanted to be, but didn’t or couldn’t. Or wanted to want to, but just didn’t.

For everyone who never wanted to be, but sometimes wishes there was a holiday for them too. For everyone OTHER than and in addition to, all the wonder~full mothers. 

For everyone who helps mothers mother, and everyone who is behind the scenes for all the mothers and the children, and those that love them. For all the great-grandparents, grandparents, godmothers, aunts and uncles and all the mothering with animals too. 

And for all who have lost a mother or never had one. 

So here’s to a new holiday I’m calling Other’s Day, and of course it fits for Mothers too, because they are not only mothers mothering. 

And here’s to the never mothers who relish the idea of being an other

and the others of EVERY description who didn’t fit in, or didn’t, or still don’t- play a role that everyone could see or understand. 

Here’s to all of us unique, illuminated, astounding human BEANS, bouncing along and BEAMING our love, no matter what day it is, or what it’s called.

The greeting of “Happy Other’s Day” makes me smile, so of course I wanted to share it, and my

love,
