In honor of all mothers

To Armenians, Mother’s Day is every day – especially because families were separated due to the Genocide or illness.


Children without mothers were raised by other relatives – if
they were lucky. Others, like my mother’s cousin Mary, and my father-in-law were sent to orphanages. They, like many other children, were left to their own defenses; a mother’s love was only a dream.


Please, take time – not just on this Hallmark day – but throughout the year to tell your mother how much she is loved. If your mother is gone, please take a moment to remember her.
