International Women's Day

I've written about International Women's Day twice before on my blog:
  • in 2010, when I talked about women having children "on our backs," and
  • in 2017, when the theme was "Be Bold for Change."
Today, inspired by my friend Jean on Facebook, I'm paying tribute to my mother.  She was my best teacher and my inspiration as I watched her stand up for what's right and saw her teach an adult class in her church for over 40 years.  She lived with me for 25 years.  I miss you, Mom.

Nice tribute. It was so great to see posts about strong women all day. Too bad it only happens one day a year.
