A Tribute to Mothers

Mothers are the best. They are there for you when you’re sick, when you’re tired, when you’re hungry, when you’re angry, when you’re happy, when you’re sad, when you’re excited, when you’re moody and still love you anyway. They celebrate your every small accomplishment and encourage you when your results didn’t match your expectations. In short, they are our everythings’s.

I typically post about my Mom on Mother’s Day, because, well, she’s the best. But this year I thought that some of you might think that your Mom is the best and might want to let others know about her. So this year on the blog I’m going to do something a little different and let you share about your awesome Mom!

Between now and Friday, May 1st, if you’d like for me to feature your Mom on Tales of a Peanut, send me an email with the subject line “Mother” and tell me about her. Please include a picture of her (with you or without, whatever you prefer) as well as what you’d like us to know about her. This could be a memory, what you appreciate about her, what you love about her, why she’s the best Mom, anything you want to say. Next weekend I’ll review all the entries and choose five to feature every day the week of Mother’s Day on the blog.

I also want to send your Mom a Mother’s Day card so, if you would like me to do that, please include her full name and address in the email so that I can send her one.

I’d also love for us to celebrate everyone’s mother’s, not just the ones that I can feature on the blog. So I started an album on the Tales of a Peanut Facebook page. You can upload a picture of your Mom along with what you want to say about her to our page and we’ll put it in this album for everyone to see and give your Mom some love! I’ll also do my best to add those that come in via email to this album as well.

I can’t wait to hear from you about your Mom and what you want to share with us! Please join us by sending me an email by Friday, May 1st, with a picture of your mom, what you want to share about her, her name, and her address (if you’d like me to send her a card). And please share on social media and with your friends so that we can celebrate as many Mom’s as possible this year!
