Hahaha! Nice. I love it!

I almost hate to say it, but…you sure that’s a girl?
David

I had to look at the drawing again too…maybe I just assumed she was female because Hemant described her that way…but she could also be Heather of Heather has Two Mommies…which would make total sense…
Tania

LOVED it! Does look like a little boy, but does it REALLY matter when you’re just trying to get a point across?

… I can’t believe some of the first comments are gender policing.

…I can’t believe I just read the phrase “gender policing”.

You could make an argument that “Mothers'” is correct anyway. After all, the day celebrates all mothers, not just yours.

I love apostrophe humour!
Nordog

I love apostrophe humour!

Which reminds me of Frank Zappa humor.

(And watch the exclamation mark usage there, or you might trigger some exclamation policing.) 😉
Anna

As a grammar-loving daughter of two moms, I heartily approve! 😉

Nordog,

If you’ve never heard the phrase “gender policing” before, you mustn’t move in very progressive circles. It is, actually, a very real problem for children who act in non-stereotypical fashions. Such children may or may not grow up to be gay and/or trans*. Either way, they should be supported.

TRiG.

*sniffle* This makes me so proud! There is hope for the future, after all, and I’m not just referring to the grammar!
Junie Shaw

Haha, That’s interesting.
Best wishes for all of mommies.

I suspect this usage is acceptable, but the official name of the day is Mother’s Day.
