Mothers really do know best!
Somehow they always come up with the right thing to say or do & their guidance lasts a lifetime. That’s why we’re rounding up all of their best advice in our Thanks Mom Giveaway – where you can tell us about your Mom & enter to win a $100 American Express Gift Card!$PullQuote$
For most of us, it was Mom who urged us to “think before you speak” and explained that “actions speak louder than words” – but beyond the basics, we’d love to know a little bit more about what makes your Mom so special to you? Did you inherit some of her superhero qualities? Was there a time when her advice (either hilarious, practical or wise) made a lasting impact?

My Mom told me that I was the one who was always there for her and made her feel better, that meant so much to me! I try to do the same for everyone that I know.
Never give up and always have hope!
My mom taught me to be compassionate towards others and to give generously :)
My Mom raised us to have self worth, to be confident and to think of others. Something I hope I pass on to my children.
i see many people that say "i hate my mom" while shes working her butt up .. making sacrifies fpr you and you dont apprciate her. Its disrespectful. I have a great mom honestly. Although we have lur ups and downs shes always here for and supports me no matter what. I love her and no one will replace her.
My mom taught me to never depend on a man.
My Mother raised me to be a strong independent women and always implemented family values and God in my life. Till this day My mom is my rock.
I see many comments reference a mother who is no longer with them; that makes me appreciate the time that I have with my Mom even more. She's always happy to see and hear from me and for that I'm very thankful.
I got my moms frugalness
My beloved Mother was not your traditional Mother and refused to be a cookie cutter MOM, Instead she believed you must grab life by the horns, never give up on your dreams, never makeup to bed, and her famous words of wisdom, some things you don't do, share men, lipstick or your recipes, and always love yourself the way you want others to love YOU!
Never burn your bridges is what my mom always told me.
Be true to yourself and follow you heart
My mom died when I was in my early 20s, and I wish I would have paid attention to her advice! Now that I'm older and a mom myself, I see how right she was. And yes, I have become my mom!
My mother taught me that one of the best things you can do for your child is to help them develop their imagination, and I'm trying to pass that on to my kids as well.
She always instilled get a good education and give back to your community.
