There are many words we use for “mother” regardless of the language we speak, however the one word that springs to mind exemplifying mother the most is LOVE. Who provides unconditional love regardless of our situation? Who best demonstrates love through the sacrifices she makes so that we may grow and flourish?

Federally Employed Women (FEW) would like to recognize all our mothers, or mother figures, on Mother’s Day and acknowledge the contributions our mothers make to our success. Reach out to all the women you know who have touched your life, whether your mother or not, and remember to celebrate them on this special day and every day.

“I realized when you look at your mother, you are looking at the purest love you will ever know.” ~ Mitch Albom
