My mother cares about me and what I do. She appreciates me for who I am and most of all, she understands me better than anyone else.

The best thing about my mother is the way that she loves me and my sister no matter what we do. She supports us in our decisions and never tells us what to do. The choices we make, we have to live with. Kate, 19Bellingham, WA I love my mom's smile. Its so sweet. It always makes me feel better, more than any comfort food ever could. Also, its pretty funny to hear her try to cuss. She is just too sweet. She has that real kindergarten teacher air about her (probably because she was). I worked at the same company with her for a while and everybody loves my mom. It kinda made me proud to hear all that praise about her all the time. Kathy, 26

Alias Irrelevante She's the most selfless person I know, always doing things for other people.And she's thoughtful. Nicole
Elk Grove, CA There are many great things about my mom, but off the top of my head; one great thing is that she can drive. Because currently, nobody else in my household can. Except for my dad, but he hasn't driven in years, so we don't let him drive. Just to be safe =). Ray, 17
Toronto CANADA Her very odd, dry sense of humor. The way she dances in the living room to old Tom Jones records...it's hilarious! Although it's embarrassing, I love how she doesn't understand sarcasm...she takes every comment literally and comes up with the funniest answers! Susan, 31
