Remember when See’s wanted to give you some chocolate? Well now they think your mama needs some chocolate. And they’ve given me a $25 gift card to see to it that it happens.
See’s has a batch of Mother’s Day gifts that I know I’d love to receive. (Hint-hint, my little darlings. I’ll take one of these.)
If you’d like to win that $25 See’s gift card, tell me something you love about your mom.
Contest is closed! Winner must live in the US. And See’s didn’t give me any chocolate this time. Which is probably just as well, considering the South Beach thing.
I love that my mom knits with me, and that she’s the greatest grandma ever!

I love that my mom lives less than 20 minutes away, and is willing to watch Wendy at a moment’s notice, even overnight. Awesome.
(And please pick me – a box of chocolates would be PERFECT for after my dietary restrictions are lifted!)

I love that my Mom is there for me when I need her! I don’t know what I would do without her! She will love these Chocolates! purposedrivenlife4you at gmail dot com
What I love about my mom is that she finally knows everything. My teens and early twenties were so tough because I knew so so much and my mom just didn’t seem to…
and she shares her advice or backs off and lets me succeed or fail just like a mama should 🙂
Hannah´s last blog post: “a scene that lingers still…“
I have become my mom. We share hobbies (reading, gardening, sewing and crafts), social habits (friendly but reclusive, hate the phone), physical characteristics (great smile, mean-looking blank stare), musical preferences (if it isn’t dance-able, forget it), and housekeeping habits (mess, mess, mess, MESS, MESSSSS, CLEEEEAANN!!!). We have low voices, wide hips, smallish busts, and unfairly disproportionately large backsides. We love our cats but don’t want to spend more at the vet than it costs to take our kids to the doctor.
I’m not sure if I love my mom more because I’ve become so much like her or if I’ve emulated her because of my devotion to her. Once I finally realized that she usually IS right about things (and that that’s okay with me), I was so glad to have her support. She is my ultimate confidant, friend, and comfort.
And my insecurities about my parenting ability are somewhat eased by knowing that if I’m anywhere near the mama MY Mom is, my kiddo will probably be just fine.
Neither of us need the chocolate. 🙂 Hips, you know.
I love my mom because she goes above and beyond … all the time, everything from rescuing turtles to making someone’s favorite pie. I learned all my best tricks from her!! I’m not sure that either one of us actually needs the chocolate, but I know we both love it!!
Aunt Chloe´s last blog post: “What’s for dinner tonight?“
I love my mom because… This perfect woman that while I was growing up, made me want to be a better person… She now lets me see the imperfect about her, the things that make her somehow more perfect, in a human way. She has shown or told me of her own self-doubts, mistakes in her life, and struggles she has that help me in my own journey. I love my mom!

I love that my mom will drive ten hours just to spend 8 hours with her grandson!
And I love that she has learned to text!
My mom is probably the most selfless person I know and is contantly thinking about everyone except herself. About 11 1/2 years ago, on my 20th birthday, I had mono. My mom had just found out that she had cancer. All my mom could think about was nursing me back to health and being there to take care of me. She’s an amazing person who would help anyone at the drop of a hat.
Amy´s last blog post: “Finally…“
My mom would do absolutely anything for kids she is so dedicated loving caring selfless. My dad was recently diagnosed with terminal cancer and she is having a very very hard time dealing with it. she is doing her best to be supportive and loving but I know she is struggling with reality. she has had a very tough year and could really use this. and she loves chocolate.

I love the way my mom interacts with my 3 year old son. It’s so cool to watch how she plays with him and reads with him. It reminds me of the way she interacted with me as a kid.
My mom knows *everything* about living as an adult. I’m in my late twenties, but still call her with questions!
My mom and Step-mom are amazing with Jocelyn, they love anything she does. I wish we didn’t live so far from them.

I love that my mom always made everyone feel loved. Whether you were her biological child or someone she “adopted” along the way, she made you feel accepted for who you were, and loved. There were a lot of the kids she worked with in the youth group at our church that didn’t feel loved very often, unless they were around my mom.

I love my mom because she is the most patient person I know. She’s also one of the sweetest person I have ever met. She truly cares about people and always puts her family before her own needs.
i love my mom because she is the best granny, at first she was too young to be a granny, but once the babbies came that all changed.
I love my mom because she will always knows how to make me feel better when I’m sad. And she can always tell when I’m sad even though I don’t tell her. It’s great, my mom is my anti-depressant 🙂
I love my mom because she doesn’t criticize my parenting style.

I totally want to win. I must win. These aren’t the droids you’re looking for…
Why do I love my Mom? Well as much of a pain in the ass as she can be, at the end of the day she’d do anything for her spawn. I know because my sister and I have tested the bounds of maternal love.
A Free Man´s last blog post: “They holler out, “Beat me Daddy, eight to the bar”“
What don’t I love about my mom?? She’s awesome. She keeps my kid for me when I need to get work done, and she helps me rearrange furniture when I get tired of the way things look. She helps me out when I’ve signed up for more projects than I can actually do. She’s great!
Madeline´s last blog post: “Happy Mail!“
I love my mom because she’s always honest and because she’s sacrificed so much for me. My mom dropped out of high school and eloped to save my life from her evil abortion-demanding parents! How much more awesome can you get?
I love my mom because she knows everything @ me & loves me more and more everyday…she knows how to always make me feel better and how to take care of me when I’m sick…I love her because she is really sad that she isn’t able to be @ my wedding!!! I sure will miss her on my big day but she will be in my heart and that is really what matters!!! I love you Mom!!!
