In Celebration of Mothers by Kristin Wallace

So I have the happy coincidence of my designated blog day on Sweet Romance Reads also being on Mother’s Day this year. I don’t have children myself, but I have the best mother in the world (and I am totally unbiased in that feeling). I’d call her a super mom because she really was. She cooked, she sewed, and she was the Ms. Fix-It in the house. She could be tough but sweet. I got my love of reading from her, so my life as a writer can be laid right on her door. She single-handedly got me through math classes my entire school career. Mostly, she loves and believes in my, even though I’m sure my weird journey as a writer is not always something she understands.

I gathered up some great quotes about moms and I wanted to share them…

“God could not be everywhere, and therefore he made mothers.”

-Rudyard Kipling

“All that I am, or hope to be, I owe to my angel mother.”

-Abraham Lincoln

“Motherhood: All love begins and ends there.”

-Robert Browning

“Men are what their mothers made them.”

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Being a mom has made me so tired. And so happy.”

-Tina Fey

“My mother had a slender, small body, but a large heart—a heart so large that everybody's joys found welcome in it, and hospitable accommodation.”

-Mark Twain

“When your mother asks, "Do you want a piece of advice?" it's a mere formality. It doesn't matter if you answer yes or no. You're going to get it anyway.”

-Erma Bombeck

Now it's your turn! Tell me what made your mother so special...share a favorite story or memory or just something she taught you that you've never forgotten.
