Mother's Day Weekend is just a few days away and of course, it is a time to celebrate and reflect on all things "Mom". Let's be honest, being a mom is the hardest job on the planet and while we celebrate Mother's Day, we might want to consider making that Mother's Week. (Yes, I realize I'm kissing up)

I mean, most moms do it all, right? That certainly was the case for me growing up.  My Mom was involved in every aspect of my life, even if I didn't want her to be.

As we get ready to celebrate Mothers Day, I thought it would be fun to ask you what your mom was or is the best at.  My Mom was an incredible baker of pies.  In fact, I would dare say that I've never had a coconut cream pie that compares to my Moms. So, I posted the following question on social media:

My Mom makes/made the best (fill in the blank here).

I really enjoyed reading all of the answers to not only find out what people's mothers were or are the best at, but I enjoyed seeing the love that folks have for their moms. Those moments in time become such a part of us and when our parents are gone, they are like a warm hug when we look back and think about them.
