By CEOMamma, on May 7th, 2011% Tomorrow is Mother’s Day and I wanted to take a moment today, to acknowledge and recognize all TheCEOMamma’s who are truly MOMs. With that being said, I’m honoring those of you who may not be natural moms, but are the driving force in the lives of others.
Maybe you are a Grandma who stepped to the plate to raise the children of your own child…we honor you!
Perhaps your an Auntie who opened your home to tend to your young niece or nephew…we honor you!
If you stand in the gap as God Mother and are nurturing the child of a best friend…we honor you!
