- Winners will also receive a portable digital video camera to capture their reunion and are encouraged to share the video on www.ThankYouMom.com.
I obviously can't be reunited with my mom for Mother's Day. Well, at least not in a way I could safely return to my own kids. But I still have plenty to thank her for.
Luckily, I did take the time to tell her, in person before I lost the opportunity how much I appreciated all that she did. I can't say for certain she heard or understood everything I said but I believe in my heart she knew.
My mom and I went through a whole lot together during my life, from her being a single mom, to the issues of a blended family, to my teen years, to me becoming a mom myself. Things weren't always perfect between us by any means but she was my best friend. She was the one I called ten times a day, sometimes just to here someone else's voice, often for help with something. She was an amazing shopping buddy. And the best Grandma in the world! I will miss her very dearly this Mother's Day.
