I’m sitting here, the owner of a stinkin’ mom’s blog, and I can’t put words to ‘paper’ about what Mother’s Day means – to me, to my kids, to my mom. What the heck?

Maybe it’s too big, maybe there aren’t enough or the right words, maybe it’s the end of another year come and gone where my kids have grown a sob inducing amount. I think it might be the sheer enormity of this task that we’ve been given that I just can’t sum up in a blog post. I think it might be the incredible moms I know that I wouldn’t dare try to describe with mere English. It might even be the huge desire I have to throw every single mom and blow out party to celebrate just how much we know she’s doing right now.

I think that maybe, just maybe, it’s something that we feel more than we see. So, I’d really like your help in SEEING all the wonderful mothers here in Lubbock. Join the Lubbock Moms Blog community in celebrating Mother’s Day by raising up a mom that deserves some recognition, a little treat, and a whole lot of appreciation! We’ve teamed up with Pecan Ridge and other local businesses and artisans to bring 4 moms a special treat (see details below!). Tell us all about her and she might just win!
