Stepmothers are being recognized by The White House For Mother's Day

For years, stepmoms have been struggling to be validated and recognized as an important part of the children's lives. They do many of the same things biological mothers do, except give birth.
Through the strong dedication and work of Christy Tusing- Borgeld, Founder of National Stepfamily Day (which is on the 16th of Steptember), President Obama had included stepmoms in his Presidential Proclamation for Mother's Day.

This is a major milestone for many women that do so much for our future generations. These children are not just children but they are tomorrows leaders and parents of future generations.
I wish to give a great round of applause to Christy and again wish a great Mother's Day to all women in the role of mother.

The Winner of National Stepfamily Day

A while back, I asked my readers to share with me an example of an activity that draws their family closer together, as part of a way to celebrate National Stepfamily Day. As a Stepfamily Coach and a stepmom, I believe it’s imperative to find activities stepfamilies can do together in a new and fun way. Stepfamilies don’t have the long family history that nuclear families have.

National Stepfamily day is September 16th. What are your plans?

National Stepfamily Day is Sept 16th. Many stepfamilies go through their existence together never feeling as if they fit. They feel different, not accepted, and even like an outsider within their own family.
Let this day be a day to celebrate all that is good within a stepfamily, all the positives that happen and help create more awareness around this often overseen subject.
