On this episode of Our American Stories, we commemorate Mother's Day by hearing stories about women who exemplify what it truly means to be a mother. Roger Latham shares a poem written by his mother, read by his daughter, Candy. Stephen Rusniak shares the thoughtful way he found to celebrate his mom on his birthday. Tiffany Jenkins, wife and mother of three, shares with us her memoir: High Achiever: The Shocking True Story of One Addict's Double Life and what it means to be a good mom. Lee Habeeb opens up about his mother's life and legacy in the patch of earth in Northern New Jersey she cared for, and influenced with her love, grace, and class.
