“Mother’s Day, which is this Sunday, is celebrated just one time per year.  I don’t know about all of you, but I think mothers should be celebrated each and every day,” Trump shared with the group, thanking them for the sacrifice they make everyday for our country.

“As a mother myself, I know what goes into raising a child.  It takes an incredible amount of strength, a lot of time, a generous amount of patience, and all of your love,” FLOTUS stated. “As moms, we are so incredibly privileged to be able to bring children into this world and be a part of helping them grow into adults.”US President Donald Trump embraces First Lady Melania Trump (R) during an event in honor of Military Mothers and Spouses in the East Room of the White House in Washington, DC, May 9, 2018.
