International Bereaved Mother's Day - Sunday May 4th, 2014

International Bereaved Mother's Day is on Sunday May 4th, 2014. This day is for every single mother who has lost a child unborn or born. It doesn't matter if you have other children or no other children. This day is for us.

“A Mother is not defined by the number of children you see, but by the love that she holds in her heart.” – Franchesca Cox

 

This absolutely doesn't mean you can't celebrate the traditional Mother's Day too on Sunday May 11th, 2014. Celebrate both if you want to, because YOU ARE A MOTHER and nothing will or can ever change that. And if it's too much to observe the traditional Mother's Day then don't, it's ok not to. CarlyMarie created beautiful profile pictures for you to use (no cropping or editing the images).

CarlyMarie has said, "On Sunday May 4th, I am hosting International Bereaved Mother’s Day. On this day, I invite you all to feel and BE EMPOWERED as mothers by taking part in The Mother Hearts Project."

Take the time to acknowledge other mothers who have lost a child unborn or born. CarlyMarie has also created beautiful cards and statements that she has given permission for them to be used (no cropping or editing the images). Find them all here.
