Special Love for Moms of Special Need Children on Mother’s Day
Mother’s day is a celebration of life, a day to celebrate the life of your mother has given you, to celebrate the life you have had with her.
Mother’s Day: A celebration honoring mothers and motherhood, maternal bonds and the influence of mothers in society. It is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world, most commonly in March or May. The modern holiday of Mother’s Day was first celebrated in 1908, when Anna Jarvis held a memorial for her mother in Grafton, West Virginia.
As the Mother’s Day just passed, we can’t help thinking about the moms and their special need children, born with disabilities, who are intellectually or developmentally delayed and who don’t know that its Mother’s Day.
Mother’s Day is a time to celebrate the unadulterated, unconditional, ever-present, always forgiving, always soothing, irrepressible love of all moms. It’s a time when children of all ages do what they can to shoe their moms how much they mean to them. All moms relish these small gestures like hand-made card, poems, the candy, the flowers, the gifts and hold their children’s efforts no matter how small, dear to their hearts forever.
But in case of a Special Care child and mother relationship, there is an absence of this celebration. Although there is a strong bond between the child and mother. As for the child the mother is all in all and complete world to him/her, and vice versa. But it is sad that the child never had the joy of writing personal messages to their mom, and their mom had never experience the joy of receiving them and keeping them to be cherished in the future.
Is it for this reason, it’s a humble request to all who know child and mother of children with special need and care, not to forget to make sure you reach out to them and celebrate them for the amazing people they are for Mother’s Day. Not only for them, but also for their children, who can’t fully express how much they truly love and appreciate their mothers.
