Celebrating Moms This Mother's Day

Proud mom moment for me just happens to be about myself. In the midst of raising a daughter with sever special health care needs and her having 3 surgeries these past couple of years, I still managed to continued with my online classes and am weeks away from completing my degree in Education! Proud mom! My daughter is my driving force and strength source!

I get so proud of my 2 year old when he wants to tell me about his colors or something new that he has learned. I get proud of the smallest things, basically because he is my first child. I have cooed over everything from his first roll to using a fork for the first time.

My son joined the Navy this past year. My proudest moment was seeing him graduate boot camp in his uniform.

My daughter is the sweetest child in the world, proud to be her mommy :)

Being a mom has been my biggest accomplishment, I absolutely love being a mom! I will have to say the teenage years are a little trying but I wouldn't change it for the world..I love my boys they are my heart. I'm so proud of them and I cherish every moment I have with them because I know one day they will not want to do things with mom and dad and all I will have is memories. So if you ask me what I want for mothers day is just family time. Just hugs from my boys!

I am a proud mom when I see the sweetness and compassion in my son

I am proud of my mom because she is the nicest person who will go out of her way to help others and make them happy.

I am so proud of my preschooler enjoying learning as a whole. She is starting to read AND write sentences all on her own!

Over the weekend I drove my daughter 2 hours to Milwaukee to visit her best friend at college. It was a last minute text asking if she could go. I begrudgingly said yes. I had just put in a full day of work. I really didn't want to drive 2 hours down and 2 hours back...leaving at 7:00pm. But I did it. My daughter is also away at school, but she is only about 15 minutes from home. So I see her quite a bit. She doesn't open up to me much, but she was very chatty on our ride down. She didn't even turn on the radio. She told me that she likes the drive down there because we get time to talk...just the two of us. Made me happy to hear that. I actually enjoy it too. I will remember that moment forever.

My mother in law and grand mother in law are such a blessing and inspiration in my life and the lives of my nieces, nephews and our entire family. I'm a mom myself and love my kids, don't see how any mother could abandon their kids or chose drugs over their children, but sadly they do. My BIL and SIL have for the last 10 years, they have put their children 2nd to drugs which have consumed their lives. My MIL and GMIL (77 years old) have taken the children and raising them as their own after CPS took them from their parents. My MIL works nights at a fast food restaurant to support them. They do everything they can to make sure these 4 kids (ranging from 7-18) have and are able to do everything any other children their age do. They are doing a remarkable job and their selflessness is truly an inspiration to me.

Proud to to be a special needs mom. Super proud of my daughter.

I am so proud of my mom for raising our family to be loving and never self centered or selfish! She provides unconditional love to all of us! What a great woman she is

I have three wonderful busy sons:) For a mom who only grew up with sisters I have learned a lot! One is a teen doing drivers training so nervous and proud at the same time! Middle son is a boyscout and has high functioning autism he can be both loving and feisty at the same time! And my youngest is a avid first grade singing and dancing all the time! Wouldn't change things for the world! :)

My proud mommy moments are always when I see my four children helpin others up, rather than putting them down. They are all very compassionate little humans, who go out of their way to make sure everyone is happy. It makes my heart swell with pride, that they are always kind to everyone.

My son has finished his undergraduate college and is finishing up 2 more finals of his first year of pharmacy school. Even though he has been on his on for a little while I still feel the need to make sure he studies and does everything he needs to do. He always text me back with a um, mom I got this! I'm 22 years old not 5!! I still worry! I am so very proud of him. I have been trying for the last 2 years to get my son and husband to purchase me a Pandora bracelet for all of my hard earned work I did that got him to this point!! Ha Ha!!!
