“If airplane safety videos have taught me anything, David, it’s that a mother puts her own mask on first.” – Moira Rose (Catherine O’Hara)
Moms are the best, aren’t they? At Friends NYC, we celebrate motherhood in all its beautiful and complicated forms. This day is not just for the people birthing the babies, either. Mom luv comes in many shades. Here’s to all the mamas, stepmamas, adopted mamas, drag mothers, people trying to become mothers, and people choosing not to be mothers. We honor the ladies and the gender nonconforming who are fiercely caring for their people. Who is that for you? How will you honor them this year?
We’re all stocked up on the cutest Mother’s Day Cards, and have a whole COLLECTION of Mother’s Day gift ideas just a click away. Show the mother figure in your life how much they mean to you. Make them feel cute and pampered and oh so loved.
