The story of how I became your mother. Three tales of the different ways I became a mother.

There are probably many other times too. So many people become mothers to others and don’t even know;)

Olivia Marie was the first one that made me a mother. She was born after a long labor and an emergency c-section. She was such a happy baby. Shortly after she was born I became a single mother. I would like to say it was hard, but I would be lying because it wasn’t. I really enjoyed it to be honest. I got to experience all the firsts and never missed a thing. Olivia is the strongest human being I have ever met. She has faced many challenges at the young age of 13 and has kicked all of their asses with grace. She is beautiful, sweet, forgiving and kind. She is always giving. She is the most amazing kid. I would like to take credit for some of it but I swear she was just born that way.

Cory made me a mother for the second time. In a different way. I met Cory when he was five. Cory needed a mother and never had a maternal figure in his life. So I instantly took on the role. Cory is now 16 and I have been taking care of him full time for going on 11 years. He is a work in progress but we all are. There are no step kids in our house, there are kids. There are no step parents, there are parents. Where there is love, there is hope.

Tallulah Wolf made me a mother the third time around. I married my best friend I have known since 4th grade. We had our baby T together. It was a very stress free lol and magical experience. Tallulah was a feisty one. She was born scheduled c-section and screaming before they cut her out of the sack. That is not a lie. Lol. She was a huge little pudgy cute thing. She is me 💯 x 10. It’s been so awesome watching her grow. She likes to tell you how it is, she is sarcastic and funny. She plays all day. Loves her big sister.

If I could wish for anything for my kids. It would be independence, it would be for happiness, it would be to laugh a lot. It would be to do so much more then I ever did and to follow your dreams. To figure out who they are and embrace it a d life.

“To all mothers. Those who have lost their mothers, t those who have lost a child, to those who desperately long to be a mother, to those who selflessly love like a mother, to those who mother any and all beings, to the adoptive, surrogate, nurturers and creatives, to those who may not have birthed life but birthed a life of their own, we honor you.”

Happy Mother’s Day.

Earth Day is one of my favorite days. There are so many things we can do to make a small step in the right direction to help
Our planet. Helping our planet is most important to me because if we don’t take care of her we will eventually not have other issues to b&tch about if she is gone. I want to see my kids thriving in a safe and healthy environment in the future. Xoxo

1. It Is the Largest Secular Holiday in the World

It is the largest secular holiday in the world. The Earth Day Network works with over 20,000 partner organizations in 192 countries to coordinate events for this day. It is estimated that over a billion people take part in Earth Day activities around the world, which makes it the largest secular event on the planet.

2. It Started Nationally and Then Grew Into an International Phenomenon

While Earth Day began in the U.S. on April 22, 1970, it did not go international until 1990. It started out with 200 million people in 141 countries and eventually grew to the mammoth proportions mentioned above.

3. We Can Thank Earth Day for Bringing Us the EPA

The first Earth Day helped push important environmental legislation in the United States. Later in the same year of the first Earth Day ever, the 1970 amendments to the Clean Air Act were passed. It is not seen as any coincidence that this happened right after the dawn of a movement to bring the problems of pollution to the forefront of peoples’ consciousness. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was also created by the end of this same year.

4. It Birthed the Environmental Movement

One of the most important and long lasting Earth Day facts is that the environmental movement was born with the creation of Earth Day in 1970. There were always people concerned about the environment in terms of air and water pollution and making efforts to clean it up, but Earth Day helped to galvanize these concerns into an actual movement with social and political impact.

5. It Brought Greenery to Barren Lands

Afghanistan is known for being a barren and foreboding land with less vegetation than more hospitable areas. In honor of Earth Day in 2011, 28 million trees were planted in this country through the actions of the Earth Day Network.

6. It Changed People’s Thinking in Their Daily Decisions

Earth Day has helped make concern for the environment a priority in how people live their own lives. While this annual event has spurred the environmental movement on to victory on the legislative front, it has also made people think more about their own choices and how they impact the planet we all live on. People are more predisposed to use recyclable materials that won’t end up on a landfill, and the financial and practical impediments to widespread adoption of electric vehicles versus their conventional counterparts is overlooked by many mainly for environmental reasons.

7. Founded by a Wisconsin Senator

Earth Day was founded by Wisconsin Senator Ga***rd Nelson. His work for the environment also included a stint as counselor for The Wilderness Society starting in 1981. In 1995, he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom for his environmental work by Bill Clinton.

8. Education Was and Still Is the Goal

This now worldwide event began as a teach-in about environmental issues when it started in the United States. This may be why 2,000 colleges along with 10,000 primary and secondary schools participated in the first one.

9. Earth Day’s Organizers Provide Tools to Help You Do Your Part

The Earth Day Network’s EnergyCenter enables people to reduce their personal greenhouse gas emissions. It helps them calculate their current usage and gives tips on how to reduce their carbon footprint. This website and effort fosters the belief that only by everyone doing their part can we fully address the problem of climate change.

10. NASA Helping Out on Earth Day

In 2014, NASA took an active part in Earth Day. Their event asked people to take a photo of themselves outside, and send it to NASA. The space agency then put these pictures on a map of the world for all to see to commemorate their participation in this important day.

Happy International Women’s Day.

To all the women who took difficult paths to forge ahead for the rest of us to follow.

To all the women who stand up for other women.

To all the women who love unconditionally and selflessly so that the ones that follow will have a better tomorrow.

To all the women who taught us difficult lessons so we would do better.

Here is to you! You have made the world a better place in your own unique way.
