Might be you are wondering why He is a mother. Is it possible that a HE is a mother? Before we will going to answer that question please allow me to greet every MOTHER out there a Happy happy mother's day.

Every second Sunday of the 5th month of the year, we are celebrating Mother's day. This is the day where balloons and cakes being printed with Happy mother's day, I love you, You are special, Thank you and any short messages is in demand. Businesses, online sellers, flowershops and bakers also loves this special day because they will have a lot of customers to attend to. This is one among the many peak days that they wanted.

A mother will be happy recieving those simple gifts from the heart.

This is also the day where children or husband could give a special message to a mother. A message of thanksgiving, an appreciation and sometimes this a special moment to ask forgiveness and be forgiven.

He is a mother

Is it possible that a man can be a mother? To answer it, we will know what is a mother first.

A female parent

A mother is a female parent. This is the very simple definition that defines every woman who has a child is a mother.

I am a mother of my only son, Samuel. How about you, are you a mother of how many kids?

Gave birth

A mother is the one who gave birth to a baby. This is also another definition of a mother. If you already gave birth, then, you are a mother.

But do you know what? There were also a mother who didn't gave birth. There were kids who are lucky and thankful to have them. They are the mothers who didn't gave birth but become a female parent by adapting some orphans.

Caring and protecting

A mother is the one who cared and protect children.

When our grandfather died (brother of our grandmother), we were able to visit their residence. During a couple of days that we were there I noticed something. I noticed my uncle (cousin of my father) giving food to his children, he let them eat and sinusubuan nya yung bunso. I also noticed that he is the one who takes care of them. He is the one who comb the hair of his daughter, he is the one who gave them a bath, he is the one who will ensure that they will have a good sleep. In my mind, wow! uncle is a responsible father.

But one time, my aunt (his cousin) asked him. Oh Louie, bakit ikaw lang ang nag-aalaga sa mga anak mo? Where is there mother? Silence fill the moment for a while and we saw some heartache in my uncle's face. He said, that his wife leave them. We felt so pity unto him as well as to their 3 children.

My aunt offered to adopt his youngest child para di na masyadong mahirapan si Uncle. My aunt who offered it is not yet blessed with a child and she is really serious about it. Most of our relatives agreed and they help my Aunt to convinced him about the adoption.

I was shocked yet proud of our uncle when he said, "Whatever will happen, I will raise my child alone. Even it is difficult, but as long as we are together, I will fight and will take care of them. I will be there InaTay. InaTay is a common term used by Pinoy to address a parent who became both a mother and father. It is Ina (mother) and tatay (father).

So, my uncle became a mother of his children from that time until now. Indeed, he is a mother.

Ending thoughts

A mother is not just the one who gave birth, it is not just a female parent but a mother is also the one who takes care of a child.

A father is a mother, a grandparent is a mother, an older sibling is a mother, an uncle or aunt is also a mother and anyone you know who serves as a mother to your life.

Remember them right now, remember how good they are in your life, remember that because of her you were here and you can say THANK YOU and HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY.

To a female parent, to the one who gave birth, to the one who takes care a child happy mother's day.
