That's about how I feel about it. Awesome post

Want to help me dig her up so she can hear me better?

Happy Mother's Day to all moms, be they biological moms, adoptive moms, foster moms, step moms, or pet moms.

I shall use those exact words when I call her.

I'm adopted and have never met my birth mom, so no personal thanks will be extended today for that particular endeavor on her part.

Apparently, my biological father was an Air Force pilot who knocked up an opera singer. Given those genes, I have to wonder how I turned out so goddamn fat, ugly and dumb. I did get the singing voice from my biological mom though. So there's that.

Alzheimers took my adopted mom from this mortal coil three years ago, so I'll just go ahead and wish all of you out there who are mothers a Happy Mothers Day in her stead.

If it goes as usual, I’ll check in with Mom in a few days (actually talked a day ago), and she might mention (as she has in the past), “Your sisters’ did what they do for ‘mother’s day,” “So now I’ll thank you and [your brother] for ignoring it!”

Thanks I called her early.

Lol!

it wasn't today. it was 57 years ago.

Birth weight 10 lbs. 2 oz. - I already sent 3 dozen tulips (her favourite) and we spoke on the phone yesterday for an hour. Anyone woman who can push out the equivalent of a sack of potatoes deserves my gratitude, not to mention all the good things she taught me in life. Happy Mother's Day to all.

I will. I will probably leave out the vagina part, even though from my mom's account I was the easiest birth she had and she had 7 others.

I can't. My mom is on vacation at a beach somewhere in Mexico

I prefer "Happy Hallmark Profits from made up Celebration Day!"

What if I am adopted?

Damn....ok...lol.
