Mom
Wisdom from Mom Bloggers
Mom bloggers are awesome: they can be punchy, smart, original, honest, controversial, insanely inspiring, and fall-off-your-chair funny. Since we can't get enough of them, we are asking the Top 50 Mom Bloggers a special question a month, every month, for 2011. This month, just in time for Mother's Day, we asked each mom to tell us why she loves her mom. Read on to learn about their special mother-daughter relationships - and check back next month for our top 50's shout-outs to their "other halves"!

I love my mom because she’s the most selfless human being I have ever known. After I had my son, Max, and I went through the toughest year of my life, she babysat, cooked for me, constantly told me how adorable he was, and tried to soothe my seemingly inconsolable self. I needed my mother then like I’ve never needed her before, and she was there for me.

I love how honest these answers are. Mom-daughter relationships are some of the toughest in our lives, and I think they only get harder when the daughter is an adult herself. Thanks to all of the bloggers for telling it like it is the good, the bad, and the sometimes fuzzy, sometimes prickly in-between space.
Love this question! Also love Blog Con Queso’s answer–funny.
since my boys have 2 moms each, Mothers’ Day is a big holiday in my family (and gets re-spelled). nice to see such a diverse range of reasons for loving mum!
These were funny and heartwarming. Particularly loved Laura Mayes’ answer.
these are so great! going to share it with my mom
Really enjoyed reading these. Very heartwarming
Choked up a little! Very sweet and honest.
Awww this really makes me want to give my mom a hug and tell her how much I love her first thing I’m going to do when I see her.
“Because she reads my blog” that’s a pretty good reason…
Unfortunately my mom passed away when I was 11, but I still remember her lessons in style. I shared them here on my blog. http://bit.ly/kHVHy0 (Oh, and I’m a top 50 blogger in Australia! Whoo Hoo!!!)
So excited I found this article as it made things much quicekr!
