May is a month where we're called to pause and especially say, "Thank you!" for the steadfast, patient, and powerful love of our mothers. Be it with flowers, brunch, or just quality time with her, let's make an extra-special effort to give honor to the woman who brought us into life itself!
May is also a time when we're called to give special honor to Mary, for by her "yes!" she became "the Mother of God," Christ himself. She is also given to us all, by Christ on the Cross to his disciple John, as a symbolic offering of Mary to be the mother of all humanity.
