Teleflora is immediately changing the name of our "Non-Mom" category to "Adopting Moms". After closer examination, we can see how this may have been offensive to moms who have adopted children -- moms who are indeed real moms to their children in every sense of the word. In fact, many of us at Teleflora are “adopting” parents ourselves, including our president and owner. The essence of this category still focuses on a grandparent, neighbor, step mom, or mom to adopted or foster children, each one raising and loving a child.
This show of insensitivity on our part was in no way intended and we deeply apologize for any concern or distress we may have caused. It was always our intent to salute and celebrate all moms.
On another note....we were attending a fundraiser tonight and I found out that there's another family in Tucson who adopted a little chinese boy last year and guess what his name is???? I'll give you a hint....it starts with an "N"! He's only a few months older than Nate....how cool is that?! I hope if they read this that they will get in touch with us. We would love to meet you!
Happy weekend everyone!
