Before I got my license, my mom drove me everywhere. I had band
practice, choir, FHA, Beta Club, and church activities. She never
complained about playing chauffeur. In fact, I think she enjoyed the
time we would spend on the way talking about, well, everything.
And
when I was old enough, she helped teach me to drive. She let me drive
to church. Mom didn’t get (too) mad when I hit the side of the garage
with her car. She’s my favorite mom, of course.
Is
your mom one of your favorite people? Can you articulate what makes her
so special? Better yet, can you convince others how amazing your mom
is? Then you should enter her in the America’s Favorite Mom contest for a chance to win $25,000 and an appearance on the Today Show.
The
contest for the Today Show appearance ends on April 25. So go take a
look at the rules, write your story, and enter that fabulous mom in the
contest. Good luck!
