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.

My Mom is a great person to look up to for my sister and me. When our dad left us 3 homeless and no place to go or any money in the account, my mom was determined this was not going to stop us from getting an education or a life. When she was able to land a job she supported my sister, me and herself. She was so thankful and taught us kids to be thankful for what we did have. A small but simple meal such as tomato soup and perhaps a slice of bread. As we grew up, my mom met this wonderful man who took us in and took care of us. The thing that always made me smile and be thankful was how humble and self assured my mom was of how she wouldn't let others put us down or stomp on us. She always reasoned calmly and reasonably with many to just have the basics in life. These are the best memories I remember and cherish. Now it is my turn to treat my mom and show her how much I have truly appreciated her being there for my sister and me. Thanks Mom.

My mom was 17 when she had me. She taught me so much and I am grateful. She sews, crochets, quilts and is a preachers wife :). There is nothing better than a mom!

My mom always said to be patient with the kids. They are looking to us to teach and by yelling we just are listening to them. And she says to never but in when kids argue about little things because they move on but us adults carry the grudge.
