Happy Mother’s Day, Mom.
That phrase will be said millions of times today in the U.S. as sons and daughters thank their mothers for lifetimes of love, help and support. And in those years, moms have built up a lot of memories, some funny, some sad, some that warm the heart.
The Times Free Press asked mothers to send in their favorite memories of being a mom, a moment when their pride at being a mother swelled to almost bursting. Here are their responses.
Recently, we went on a trip and were gone almost three weeks. My oldest son was to pick us up at the airport when we returned. When we arrived at the airport, there was not just one son, but all three were there to welcome us home. I had really missed them, but did not know they had missed me in spite of their busy lives.
