#herestomom

Only 7 days left 'til Mother’s Day!  Order your flowers, make a copy of your handprint in paint, and get your Sunday best ready for a painful family brunch.  Because that’s what Moms like???  Right??

Ah, Mother’s Day.  The one day a year where we try to honor and remember Mom for everything she does 365 days a year.  This year’s best “Mother’s Day” ad campaign goes to Fit Bit; because what Mom doesn’t want a gift from her family that says, “You’ve let yourself go and we’re trying to find a nice way to tell you." 

Fortunately for you, readers, there are many sweet children’s books that pay homage to Mom without mentioning that she still has yet to lose the baby weight or only wears yoga pants but doesn’t do yoga.

 Every day this week, we will take a look at a different children’s book that honors the women who gave us life, took care of us while we were sick, and totally embarrassed us when we were teenagers.

Here’s to you, Mom.   

Let’s Celebrate Mom:

1) Are You My Mother?

2) Five Minutes' Peace

3) Love You Forever

4) Guess How Much I Love You
