  3. Sisi Yemmie,I was telling one of my twin daughters and a friend last week, that we should at least have a month of celebration, instead of just one day, here in the US. Mothers risk their lives to bring children into this world.The world can't be ok without mothers.There's a special blessing for mothers and we should trust our instincts more often,it is a gift to us from God.
