Did you know that Julia Ward Howe also wrote the Battle Hymn of the Republic? Women of that era who suffered through the Civil War, knew just as we do today that matters of war and peace are never simple. It's easy to read the Mother's Day Proclamation and think of it as a naive sentiment, but really looking back at Julia Ward Howe's life, I think she and her contemporaries well knew just how much they were asking. Happy Mother's Day to all the Mothers Who Talk, and to all the other moms out there.
