You look like her!

sleepycongressman.bsky.social•16 days ago

You don't think you were the light of her life, Scott?

Light begets more light

Thanks for sharing your loving thoughts of you mum! Very nice

recsysml.bsky.social•16 days ago

Thanks for sharing a personal story. Yeah, can’t understand the way a large part of the voter base is vilifying immigrants

findbalnz.bsky.social•16 days ago

And a cutie!

sinatra999.bsky.social•16 days ago

She did a bloody good job👏🏻 👍
Thank you from all of us

Our mother's teach us many things, except how to live without them.

My mom raised 3 of us on a secretary’s salary. Working an extra job or two on weekends. Collapsed from stress and went into a 10 day coma 25 years ago, recovered. Had a rare kidney virus and got a transplant 10 years ago. Still here at 74. Toughest person I know, unlike these weak fucks in the WH

So much love, wonderful!

Sucks missing parents. RIP 😔

And a fine job she did! Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms❤️

wonderpommey.bsky.social•16 days ago

did you read "livre de ma mere" by Cohen? the most heartwrenching rendition of losing one's mother. an absolute stunner

rossbaker87.bsky.social•15 days ago

I’m sure she would be very proud of the Dog!

rossbaker87.bsky.social•15 days ago

You can’t do that today.

love lasts forever!

jorgesarvise.bsky.social•16 days ago

You turned out pretty well, she'd be proud.

mika1957.bsky.social•16 days ago

Yes women rule happy mother's Day to all your mama's out there thanks for raising beautiful children at least most of you I'm not sure about the Cult numbers however I see you're their children will either commit suicide or come to your school and shoot their classmates

This is clearly is a heartfelt message and pulled some heartstrings.

Thanks for sharing.

Coincidence. An Iranian immigrant 🇮🇷 to 🇬🇧 made me. He just turned 85 and he’s having a crappy time with his health. 😞
Best dad ever.

gjjonesy.bsky.social•16 days ago

Miss mine every day too

dontbowtheknee.bsky.social•15 days ago

To all the Mothers who are no longer with us, we send our love and gratitude, for making us the person we are today. We hope you are proud of who we have become and that we can continue to make steps towards achieving the goals we set and use the lessons that you taught us. You’re loved and missed🥰

cunhaoli.bsky.social•13 days ago

She must be very proud of you. You use your life to write the meaning of her silent sacrifice. The real light will never go out, it just changes the way to accompany you.

A mother’s love and devotion is eternal…that’s why she always has a place in your heart and life.

So grateful to your mom for bringing you into the world and raising you to be the man of reason and moral clarity that you are today.

“A mother's love for her child is like nothing else in the world. It knows no law, no pity. It dares all things and crushes down remorselessly all that stands in its path." - Agatha Christie

May her memory always be a blessing

yourmomjo.bsky.social•15 days ago

I understand completely. Will never NOT miss my mom. Incredibly difficult to lose her.

bakersmath.bsky.social•15 days ago

Wonderful tribute!

pdconner52.bsky.social•16 days ago

Love this. The ability of 1st/2nd generation Americans to pull the ladder up behind them is a disgusting trait of this country.

kellyaucoin77.bsky.social•16 days ago

This mirrors my dad’s story. Father ran out in the family. Dad and his brother were raised by my grandmother on a waitress’ salary. Grew up to be a 9 term congressman.

Happy Heavenly Mother’s Day🌷🌷🌷
Rest in peace🙏🏼🤍🕊️

czech-queen.bsky.social•16 days ago

She did a fine job too!

lauriepyle.bsky.social•16 days ago

She raised a good man, who cares about the issues facing other men and boys across the globe. I am so proud of the amazing men I raised, my biggest accomplishment.

savvykat72.bsky.social•16 days ago

God bless her, we suffer at loss of our mothers. She sure raised an intelligent man who has great character and integrity and a gift for identifying and solving some of the biggest challenges of our time. I watch every interview I can find with you, giving us advice and hope in the darkest of time

Happy Mother's Day!

betteryeti.bsky.social•16 days ago

If only she could see you now, dude. Somewhere she's smiling... when she's not being scandalized by the filthy jokes.

daveacoley.bsky.social•16 days ago

She made a great job of raising you.

sweaters40.bsky.social•16 days ago

She did a great job!

jay-ray.bsky.social•16 days ago

She was lovely

May her memory forever be a blessing.

tessa1963.bsky.social•16 days ago

MAGA is most terrified of strong, compassionate women. And that is why they keep trying to push us back to 1950.

antonwg.bsky.social•16 days ago

Too bad you look like your dad!

nanlinear.bsky.social•16 days ago

imagine Scott with hair, you probably wouldn't say that😄

samguy60.bsky.social•16 days ago

Well things were cheaper. I mean my mom was proud that she paid for my college education out of her salary working in a department store. But then this is back in the 80's and my education at a Cal State school probably didn't even cost $3K

fiverayrays.bsky.social•16 days ago

Nothing like a mother’s love. 💕 Nothing.

kd-novascotia.bsky.social•16 days ago

She did a good job! She would be very proud, I am sure.

Oh I feel you...my mom raised us 5 kids on her own... she was badass and I miss her everyday!
