This week we are celebrating moms, but we also want to take a moment to celebrate women who made the conscious choice not to become a mom.

She said she knew from the time she was a kid that being a mom wasn’t something she wanted to do.

“I really enjoy it. It's kind of a nice windfall that when you wake up every day, you're just like oh man I get to do what I love I get a peaceful happy fun life,” Borden said.“There will be daggers coming through the screen at me I’m sure by quite a few people,” Borden said.“I knew all along I never had that urge to want to have kids,” Borden said. “I just thought that I could be here to maybe help, and nurture grown humans along the way instead of little ones.

“I spend tons of time with wonderful people. I get to experience their happy times, their sad times, help them through whatever they need and sometimes they help me,” Borden said“Originally, I heard a lot of ‘what's wrong with you’ and ‘who's going to take care of you when you're old’,” Borden said, “they would look shocked or kind of disgruntled and then they would smile like ‘oh you'll change your mind’ and that made them comfortable thinking that I would change my mind.

“That's been kind of tough, but you know I know that the choice that I’m making for me it's my life, it's my world and it makes me super happy,” Borden said.“I think its more of a growing thing and more of an accepted thing and I’m really glad because the heat and the harshness was just getting old,” Borden said.
