Okay, I've tried to be super careful about how I've phrased parts of my journey, but I'm currently not talking to my mom right now, after trying to stand up for myself after 20+ years of having a... complicated relationship with her.
Today feels...weird. I guess I've gotten used to doing things for her out of a sense of obligation, rather than because I wanted to. I feel a little guilty for not reaching out, but I know it's what I need right now.

So, I'm trying to celebrate my wife as a Mother...
As much as we can today. I've learned from experience that family isn't always blood. Friends are family, family can be the ones you choose. Even in the midst of the pain, I've had so many women be positive role models in my life, and love me like their own.
I'm not sure if I'll be able to reconcile with my mom. So those for whom today is hard, I see you. I'm sorry for the pain you've experienced. You are loved. And family can be whoever your people are.
