“Every now and then, I’ll open my mouth and my mother will come out,” says Senior Homes Editor Betsy Watson. “Whether it’s a slightly cheesy joke delivered to a cashier, a greeting cooed at a friend’s baby, or the rare ‘bless your heart!’ upon learning of a recent calamity, it’s most often my unpremeditated speech patterns that reveal I am, at last, becoming my mother.” Of course, she’s not the only one. In honor of Mother’s Day, our editors are sharing the amusing, sentimental, and occasionally groan-worthy moments we realized we’re all becoming our mothers—just like they said we would—and we’re sharing them at the link in our profile! 💕 📷: Courtesy Everett Collection; 📝: @betsycwatson

From door-to-door Pack Horse Libraries and Bookmobiles to nurses on horseback, Appalachia has a rich history of community care and resilience. The “Bookwomen,” also known as “book ladies” and “pack saddle librarians,” were librarians of the “Pack Horse Library Project,” a division of the WPA (Works Progress Administration), a program instituted by President Franklin Roosevelt between 1935 and 1943 to boost the economy by paying people for services during the Great Depression. Join us at the link in our profile to learn more about this incredible initiative and how Appalachian communities continue its legacy today. 📷: Courtesy Kentucky.
