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? 

 To enter, just comment below and you'll be eligible to win a $100 American Express Gift Card!

 

 Here is the exquisite "Baby Mine" from Dumbo, sung by Bette Midler.

 Happy Mother's Day to all of our SheSpeaks Moms!!

 

Baby of Mine

 

 *This giveaway is open through May 20th to US residents over 18 years of age

 Congratulations to our lucky winner, Tikkun!

Simply because she is my mom and with all moms raising a child or children is hard work. She always said you never fail until YOU stop trying and that explains how she made it through. From sleepless nights, to being employed as basically half of the jobs known to man like a taxi driver, dr, therapist, singer, comedian, and more. I thank her for all she has done and continues to do & i am proud to have learned to be the best mom that i can be.

I really admire my mother's patience and nerves of steel with the daycare kids. She is very kind and patient, even in stressful situations. I really love that she has a silly sense of humor like me. Makes for some good laughs!

The movie Dumbo made me so sad as a child. I didn't even remember that it had a happy ending. Being away from your mom is the worst.

My mom is a very special woman. She taught me that with hard work and determination that you can accomplish anything. She poured her heart and soul into raising my brothers and me. And my mom is the best mom I could ever hope for.

I'm just like my mom often mistaken for sisters *gasp* but she's a great friend now that I'm older.

My mom's best advice was to try to make purchases for the kids as equal as possible when doing something special for them.

My mom is so smart, patient, loving, carrying, kind, compassionate... I could go on forever about how she is my hero. She had endured so much already in her life and she only shows us how to learn from our mistakes! She's the best mom and I'm glad that my children have an awesome grandma to look up to! She makes me want to strive to be a better person for those around me! Even if she's tired and exhausted she still makes time to listen to you and your problems!

I inherited my mothers ability to know when my kids are trying to lie or if something is bothering them. I can always tell just by looking at their faces.

My mom is so special for me because I know how she struggled to grow me up.

My mom is my best friend. I can talk to her about anything and she is there for me, always so supportive. My mother lets me vent, offers advice, and often times she goes ahead and goes to work fixing things for me the best that she can. I couldn't have asked for a better role model

My mom is amazing, she has gotten through my dads death that was very unexpected. She teaches low income families how to save money an get them back on there feet and always wears her heart on her sleeve.
