Feliz Día de las Madres—Happy Mother's Day!
As Dr. Cesar Cruz reminds us in his moving reflection, "Mother's Fierceness" — mothers carry a love that is not soft and passive, but bold, protective, and relentless. It is a fierceness that fights for their children, holds families together, and refuses to let the world diminish those they love.

A Special Remembrance 🌹
I hold, on this day, a tender and proud place in my heart for my own mother, Helen Valenzuela, whose fierceness was a gift I did not always have words for—but always felt—and still feel today in my very being.
She passed from this world in 2005, twenty-one years ago, and yet her love, her strength, and her fierce devotion live on in all that I am and all that I do. Mamá, te llevo siempre en mi corazón. You are seen. You are remembered. You are deeply loved.
To those who are raising children, to those who have raised them, and to those who nurture communities and mother with their hearts in ways the world doesn't always see—your love matters more than you know.
Sending love to everyone celebrating today, and gentle, compassionate thoughts to those for whom this day is tender—those grieving a mother, missing one, or navigating this day with a heavy heart. May you feel seen, held, appreciated, and deeply loved.
Feliz Día de las Madres. Con amor y gratitud. 💐
