#NotYourKindOfMothersDay

Today was my first Mother’s Day in church for a long time. When my barista invited me today, I initially said no, because almost every church I’ve been to makes this day a dedication to mothers and babyloss hasn’t made me one.

I don’t want to take away from women who have children but I also don’t want to sit weeping while church leaders ask women with children to stand up so that they can be handed flowers. So I just avoid it.

This Sunday. I decided I wanted to be with fellow Believers, so I went. And it was my first time experiencing this denomination and I want to say a HUGE thank you to the Presbyterian church who made this Sunday about the words and life of Jesus and nothing else. 🙏🏾
