From Donald Trump paying tribute to his own mom (while not mentioning Melania) to military men surprising their wives with messages here are some of the thoughts being shared on Mother’s Day this year.
A #HappyMothersDay to all. Much of what is good in life, much of what fuels optimism and hope, that foster love and justice, is rooted in the special bonds between mother and child.

To my hero since Day 1 – Happy #MothersDay!
I spoke to my mom on the phone & we had a deeply moving conversation that I wanted to share with you all on #LiftEveryVoice.

I hope this #MothersDay spurs us as a nation to get with the times & act on the policies moms & all parents need to support their families, including equal pay & paid family leave

For as long as I can remember, I’ve wanted to be like my mom. Her endless hard work – in the face of the same obstacles and sexism still holding women back – keeps me fighting every day. pic.twitter.com/Jopp29m9RZ

There are tough fights ahead for a fairer and more equal future, but I know my mother wouldn’t flinch at them. We won’t, either. Happy Mother’s Day to the strongest women out there.
