“For me, it’s honoring the role of motherhood and my mother,” said Bethany Johnson (right), pictured with her daughter, Rebecca Johnson, 17, and her mother, Sarah Naff. “The (Mother’s Day) tradition was to wear a red or pink rose if your mother was living and a white rose if your mother had passed. My mother always gave us roses to wear to church. She’d give me and my sister red roses and she wore a white rose,” Naff said.
“Mother’s Day is about unconditional love,” Katie Henderson said. “I’ve always had that with my mother and now I get to have with my daughter.” This was Henderson’s first Mother’s Day with her daughter Ruby Kate Henderson. “I just enjoy spending time with all the kids,” Mary Kirkland said. “We’re going to visit my mom tomorrow, so we’re doing something as a family today.” Pictured (from left) are Gunner Kirkland, 5;

“It means celebrating the sweetness of having children and taking some time to reflect on that,” said Elisabeth Lawson, flanked by her daughters Laine Lawson, 8, and Camille Lawson, 11. “It’s to celebrate moms and do something for them, like cook them breakfast, make them coffee in bed, make cards and get her something,” said Camille.
