Happy Mothers Day to all the mothers
even those with beards who appear as fathers
but deep down their love forever in bloom
it feels, their child should come from their own womb

Hi alexia

Lovely.
It strikes a tender chord deep inside.

& Happy Moms' Day.

Happy Mothers Day 

I agree. In fact, Happy Mothers Day ESPECIALLY to transsexual women who raise kids, look after them, cook their meals, wash and iron their clothes, wipe their runny noses, and care for them every single bit as much as any mother anywhere should. The fact that we can't bear children, as Alexia's poem so beautifully said, doesn't mean we don't love them just as though we had.

Happy mother's Day! 

Happy Mothers Day.

I had several friends ask if my daughter sent me a Mothers Day card.  I'm my daughter's father and parent, but I don't think that either of us thinks of me as her mother.  (She has begun referring to me to her friends as "the woman who used to be my father."  I like that.)

As her father I helped raise her, looked after her, cooked her meals, washed and ironed her clothes (and washed her, when she was little).  But her biological mother has a bond with her that I will never have, just as she will never have the kind of bond my daughter and I have.  It's all good, and the labels don't always work.
