Famous Irish Mothers
Mother’s Day isn’t far off, so it is time to celebrate the women who made us who we are today. Mothers today are often shouldering a huge amount of work, especially when you add supervising distance learning for their children into the mix. They are heroes! And they deserve all the love, cups of tea, cards and Irish gifts they get.
Ireland has an incredible tradition of strong women leaders from the days of the pirate queen Grace O’Malley to the present. In honor of Mother’s Day, it is time to shine a spotlight on a handful of them who were also mothers.
