46-year
old woman who never had children
"I'm
never going to church on Mother's Day again! I cried from when I walked in the door until
I left. First, the greeter
said, `Happy Mother's Day!' and gave me a flower and I had to
tell her that I'm not a mother.
Then they had all the mothers stand up for special prayers.
And the sermon was all about how special mothers are.
How is that supposed to make me feel?"
