On Mother's Day, my husband, 2 year old daughter, and I were driving to go out to eat. Out of nowhere my 2 year old said "I is a very happy girl mommy". I said you are? She said "yes! I are very happy. I Yuv you mommy!" That made my whole day! No matter how many times I feel like I am messing up she is always reminding me I am doing just fine because she is a happy and healthy little girl.

My mom is almost 80 years old and she has five children. She had stopped her life just for us. She even had a mentally retarded son she took care of by herself with my other siblings . She has always put us first no matter what . She could have been a doctor but instead she took care of us ...

My mom never worked in an office before. She took classes and got a really good job.

Im a mom of a 2 1/2 year old daughter. She was diagnosed 6 months ago with moderate Autism. I was devastated when I first heard the diagnosis. She has already began therapy and Daycare and has been making lots of progress except for still no talking. But hearing other family stories in the same situatiob help me get thru, and I know with the right teachers and therapy's she to will thrive and lead a normal healthy life. Even though my LoveBug was diagnosed I wouldnt want her to be any different, to me she is just perfect with a special little cooky character.

My daughter Samantha's wedding day. My husband had passed away in December and she was walking down the aisle on her uncle's arm the day after what would have been my 22nd anniversary and the day before our first father's day since his passing. Even in the midst of pain, we made it through this very special day with smiles and laughter with a few tears.

My mom just last year on mothers day had two major open heart surgeries in one day because the first one left a major arteries open and she bled out enough to get 6 blood transfusions. I was hysterical. My mom was just 51 at the time and i couldn't lose her. she wad in surgery for18 hours and when she came out she was on so much equipment i was terrified and i could not leave her. She took about 6 hours to wake up and when she did i was trying not to cry and scare her because she was hooked up to so much and the doctors weren't sure she would make it. She woke up and very groggily told me she was so proud of me and how much she loved me and i realized she was trying to comfort me! When she just went through the trauma of two open heart surgeries in one night! I realized this is what it's like to be a mother that to always soothe your child and teach them to be strong and feel loved all the time. When i grow up i want to be just like my hero, my mom.

My Grandma was my Mom. After raising 11 kids of her own she adopted my sister and me. She took care of us when she didn't have to and I'll never forget everything she did for us.

I am so very proud of my twin daughters. We have battled scleroderma since grade school and are now in remission. They will be seniors this coming year and instead of dwelling on what they had they shared there story as well as joined a support group. They are very active healthy and happy. They will be a cna by the time they graduated and will go to college after to be nurses. I am one proud mom!

My mom has been gone seven years now. So it makes me treasure every day I have with my two wonderful sons. I try to instill in them that it's not about material things in life. Memories last forever. So when your kids are getting ready or just hanging around the house and they say, "Let's go make some memories", it melts my heart to know they listen and understand. They appreciate the time we spend together. That is what makes me a proud mama.......

I am a stay at home mom of 2, now soon to be 3. My kids are 10 and 6. They get straight A's and help around the house with stuff. Now that they found out they are soon to have a sibling they are super excited and want to help out more around the house. I so love these kids!

My boys make me proud everyday! The way my oldest brags about his brothers and sister on the way, the way they love each other and play so good together! They share, they look out for each other. When one is sad the others hurt for him, their bond makes me proud. Their bond lets me know me and their dad have showed them a love and they show it so well to each other :) Everyday, my kids make me as proud as can be!

I'm a very proud mommy of 2, one of the proudest moments was on the first day of school when my daughter started kindergarten for the first time and I thought she would've been crying when I had to leave the classroom but it was the opposite she had a big smile and gave me a hug & kiss and told me I see you later mommy and when I left I was in tears but I was so proud of how strong she has always been since she was born she has always been my strong girl & Being a single mom of 2 is a struggle but I'm very proud of how my babies are growing up smart and strong.
