Indeed. I can't picture my parents signing up for Facebook accounts, but my MIL has asked us more than once about FB. The only thing stopping her from signing up is that you have to provide your date of birth. (Come on. It's not like you have to provide your real DOB.) But if she does ever sign up - well, I'll have to friend her or she won't stop whining - but she will go in her own little security group that will be on total lockdown - no status updates, no gaming posts, no photos or videos, nada.

Mother's Day sometimes makes me feel awkward too. People tend to ASSume I'm a mom. Last night, I was at a temple fundraiser, and one of the coordinators announced, "Happy Mother's Day to all the ladies here." AFAIK, I'm the only adult female congregant without children. Does that mean I'm not a lady? But I held my tongue and took the announcement in the spirit it was intended - all the other women who were present are mothers.

Mothers includes furry children too, as I was reminded by a friend who called me and told me Happy Mother's Day. And once a mom, always a mom.
