my mom deserves this prize and much much more. My mom is the only reason this family would remember to breathe. She does SO MUCH for this family i sometimes feel bad because she doesnt get enough rest or recognition that she deserves. My mom go's to work at 8:00 just like alot of mothers. But what makes my mom standout from all the others is what she does afters shes gets off. She does everything from helping raise my nephew as my sister goes to her night classes at ICC to running her and my dads motorcycle shop. She is ALWAYS cleaning the house(even when i think its not dirty) but she says im crazy, i guess she sees things i dont. She is the one person in the family who reminds us of relatives birthdays, when parties are, doctor appointments,and much more. When my dad and I come home from the shop each night, we always have a homemade,multiplate, 5 star dinner waiting on us and it tastes way better than any resturaunt can make. With 4 people, 1 baby, 1 dog, 1 cat, and one fish in the house with 2 daughters in college and one in high school, if she is not working or doing other things around the house, she is with one of us supporting WHATEVER it is that we participate in. My whole family is involved with dragracing. I race a motorcycle,my dad races a motorcycle, my sisters both have drag mustangs, and my mom is the team owner and crewchief of the motorcycles. Therefore on the weekends, she is on the road in the rv traveling to each race, sometimes gone for a whole week. She is the one who prepares and organizes the entire trip. From loading the rv up with food and groceries to getting the directions from mapquest. When she does go to bed, that is usually the only time that she gets off her feet. She does not take the time for herself to ever relax or get pampered which is why i believe my mother is the right mom not only for the grandprize, but any other prize or award there is for an outstanding mother and person. If she does not win this contest, i would be very upset because i truely believe that she deserves this more than you could image. so please think of how it would make a person who doesnt get any resttime or freetime to enjoy herself and get pampered.
