Mother's Day Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come. She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. Her children arise up, and call her...

To celebrate mothers is to celebrate life itself. Like virtually everything else in life there are exceptions but for the most part mothers are indeed exceptional in their unconditional love and devotion. Melania Trump explained them this way at a Mother’s Day gathering in 2017: “Mother is a title that claims your heart and changes your life forever. In fact, it has been said that having a child means allowing your heart to walk around outside of your body.” So if you’re lucky enough to still have your mom around, grab some flowers and thank the woman who let her...

On Mother’s Day, we celebrate the exceptional mothers in our lives.  It is through the unwavering love, comfort, and guidance of these extraordinary women that we first learn to experience joy and the wonders of life.  Whether they became mothers through birth, adoption, foster care, or other means, these women are deserving of our unending gratitude and praise this day and every day.The intuition and wisdom passed from mother to child strengthens the fabric of our Nation and preserves generations of wisdom and familial values.  In our earliest days, our mothers provide us with love and nurturing care.  They...

An apostrophe is a funny thing. Just repositioning it can change meaning significantly. This Sunday is Mother’s Day, but for me it’s Mothers’ Day. It’s a day I celebrate three extraordinary moms: my birthmom, my mom, and the mama of my four kiddos. (Few know that since 1990, Birth Mother’s Day has been celebrated the preceding Saturday.) I wouldn’t be here if not for the incredible decision of my precious birthmom. When people talk about those fringe cases, the ones people always use to demand limitless abortion, they’re talking about me. Through no fault of my own, I’m told (even sometimes...

WARREN, Mich. (FOX 2) - Saturday, the manager of Sagano Japanese Steak House & Bistro contacted Fox 2 to say that a friend of 10 people seen leaving without paying, took care of the group’s $530 bill. The payment came after Fox 2 ran a story Friday, depicting the group walking out of the restaurant before their tab was settled. (Original story below): Party of 10 orders food. Party of 10 eats food. Party of 10 leaves. Another dine and dash in metro Detroit has left a Japanese steakhouse and bistro out more than $500 after a large group decided...

All they had to do was make average tasting cookies at competitive prices. Instead, Chips Ahoy decided it’d be a good idea to do this. What in the… I’m not even sure what this is supposed to mean. Even if someone believes being a drag queen makes a man suddenly become a woman, they don’t become suddenly become a mother in the process. That’s kind of separate aspect of feminism that you can’t just appropriate. Also, aren’t drag queens a different thing than transgenders, i.e. they don’t claim to be the opposite sex? None of this makes any sense. There’s...

In memory of Gail Gillespie “Gee Gee” Reed, June 10, 1945 — June 10, 2018 On that sunny morning as I sipped coffee and watched yellow daffodils in the back yard, tossing their heads in sprightly dance, my thoughts were not on life bursting forth on that spring day, but on death. A year had passed since cancer ended my mother’s life. While gazing at pictures of her on the breakfast table, a quote came to mind: “Little things make big things happen.” Once when I asked Dad, a college English teacher, why the quote was taped to his laptop,...

My mom read the newspaper every day. She especially looked forward to the twice-weekly columns of Erma Bombeck, whose writings my mom enjoyed not merely because of her wittiness, but also because Bombeck was a woman of faith. Indeed, Bombeck converted to Catholicism in 1949, the year she graduated from the University of Dayton with an English degree. A professor suggested that she pursue a writing career but, instead, she got married and decided to be a mom. Alas, Bombeck and her husband were told they were unable to have a child, so they adapted a baby girl. Two years...

Here it is, Mother’s Day again…already. I’m reposting last year’s tribute to moms because a) I like it, and b) I’m hitting the road early. My mom will have been gone 10 years already later this month. It doesn’t seem possible as sometimes it seems she was here just yesterday. Mom: ever a part of you, always with you, even when she’s not. Happy Mother’s Day, Mom. It’s mother’s day, don’t forget to get mom some flowers. It doesn’t matter if you pick them, plant them or purchase them.Every mom loves flowers To celebrate mothers is to celebrate life....

No offence: Primary school in inner city Melbourne renames Mother’s Day stall ‘appreciation’ stall A Melbourne primary school is renaming its Mother’s Day stall “appreciation stall” to avoid causing offence.

President Donald Trump recognized mothers serving in uniform, those married to service members, and those with children in the military during an event at the White House on Friday, thanking them for their service and wishing them a happy Mother’s Day. “Military mothers are the backbone of America,” he said. “Your unwavering dedication and support strengthens our entire nation. Today we honor you, we celebrate you, we salute you, and everything that you do — so many things, so many great things for our country.”(VIDEO)President Trump and The First Lady Participate in the Celebration of Military Mothers ....“You’ve spent Mothers...

Kermit Gosnell, the abortionist currently on trial for murdering seven babies and a woman, is being portrayed as an aberration. “He is not typical,” writes Irin Carmon at Salon.com, “and there was, and has been, swift renunciation of his facility.” I hope you’ll join me in congratulating the feminist left for renouncing a mass murderer. But as long as pro-choicers are calling Gosnell an outlier, it’s time to examine some of the historical circumstances surrounding his abortion mill, specifically those involving a man named Harvey Karman. Karman was an abortionist and fake doctor who forged his medical credentials. He was...

Planned Parenthood, an organization funded by globalist murderers and your tax dollars to help kill children, has the audacity to send out Mother’s Day tweets on Twitter. The irony is beyond comprehension at this point, with an organization that funds and assists in the abortion of children to send out tweets recognizing “Mother's Day,” the exact holiday in which they help to destroy by murdering the innocent. It's beyond disrespectful for Planned Parenthood to even consider sending such a tweet on the one day that's meant for mothers to recognize their hard work and responsibilities, saying thank you to all...

Bullying, stealing, and racism are just some of the “signs” your child might be turning into a Republican, a video by billionaire liberal activist Tom Steyer’s NextGen America warns mothers. In a video redolent of public service videos about teen drug use, a mother laments that she didn’t recognize the signs her son was becoming Republican - until it was too late: “This Mother’s Day, talk to your child about the GOP. I wish I had.”

HORRY COUNTY, S.C. — A mother in South Carolina received a special Mother's Day gift Sunday after the staff at a Ruby Tuesday's noticed she was eating lunch by herself. According to WMBF, Barbara Foy went to get lunch by herself at the Ruby Tuesday near Surfside Beach after she didn't receive a call from her son on Mother's Day. She said he hasn't called her for some time. When the staff realized Foy was eating alone, they pitched in to make her a Mother's Day gift basket filled with goodies. Foy's lunch was also paid for, and a customer...

Melania and Donald Trump are not known for being lovey dovey. But now – – they kissed and hugged in pubic. Coincidence? Melania Trump, 48, and Donald Trump, 71, are not known for kissing and hugging in public. While Michelle Obama, 54, and Barack Obama, 56, inspired memes, because they practically couldn’t keep their hands off each other during eight years at the White House, the Trumps are the targets of awkward headlines about their relationship. But the first couple was unusually affectionate during an official engagement at the White House. Melania introduced her husband during a special Mother’s Day...

While White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders cherishes her role as a mother to three children 6 years and under, she doesn’t shy away from the fact that there are difficult motherhood days – similar to dealing with CNN’s Jim Acosta. “Both of them whine pretty regularly. They both like to ask the same questions and sometimes their tone needs to be adjusted a little bit. So I think that having kids has prepared me for the job that I have right now,” Sanders responded to the Daily Caller question: “What’s more difficult: Dealing with your children on an onerous...
