Last Day to Vote for 2011 NanaHood Mother of the Year

I actually have one more mom to tell you about, but this one is not one you can vote for. Her daughter sent this in with explicit instructions for me not to put her in the contest. However, she wanted to surprise her mom by telling you about her.

So here goes, remember you can’t vote for this one. It’s just a daughter’s love praising her mom.

My Mom, Paulette

By Misty Morgan

I thank she is the greatest mom ever for several reasons, but most of all for putting up with me which we know is not an easy job.  I know that I do not need to tell you what a great mom she is or what a wonderful lady she is because you along with lots of other people know this without being told.  However, I do not tell her this near enough and thought writing this to you would show her and I bet she cries.

I wouldn’t know what to do if she wasn’t around to drive me nuts and make me crazy.  I could not do all that I do for myself or Bailey without her help.  Hoby, Dara and I are very lucky to have her as or mom because she would do anything for us without asking any questions.  She has done without many things in order to give us all three what we need or want and she still does even though we are adults.

She has taught us so many things but I would say the things I cherish most is to think for myself, take up for myself and express my opinion.  I would say she wishes now that she had not taught me that last one. Her role as mom has now expanded into Meme which I think she enjoys lots more than being a mom, which I understand because it has to be way more fun not having to make everyone be on their best behavior.

I decided to write this to you and her after this mornings experience with getting Bailey ready for school.  Mom always use to say that I moved at my own pace and never got in a hurry for anything which may or may not be true in my opinion but back to the point.  She would have to repeatedly tell me to do things in the morning and rush me in order to get things done and get to school on time. I always thought she was just being bossy and mean until now and I have to do the same thing to Bailey.

I want to take this time now to thank her for not killing me over my morning routine and to tell her that she was right about it coming back to me with my own child because it has with Bailey.  There is so much that I want to tell her but that would send me way over the word limit.  I mainly just want her to know that I love her more than anything in the world and when I fuss at her it is only because I want her around to drive me nuts for the rest of my life.  Also I know that if I told you all the reasons why she is the best mom and meme in the world that she would win your contest hands down.
