[…] Mother’s Day Giveaway Entry […]

I added mine:) It was hard to choose between my mother and my grandmother, simply because I know my mom is the woman she is today because of her mom. I have 2 heros.

I’m in!

What a great contest and an incredible prize! I enjoy seeing other people’s submissions of motherhood-inspired photos.

What an awesome contest and a fabulous way to give tribute to MOM’s everywhere.
My photos which I want to enter have already been scrapbooked onto a 12 x 12 layout. I hope that it will still count in your photo contest.
You can see it here:

Thank you for all that you do for moms!

As soon as I saw this contest I knew EXACTLY which photo to choose. Looking forward to seeing everyone’s entries!

Great website ..

I love your photo!!!
Thanks for this contest!!!!

I love old pictures. I have so many of my family that I can wait until I can get them all scanned in.

Great contest - I couldn’t pick just one picture. Thanks for giving me this opportunity to really honor the women who made me who I am.

Great giveaway, I’m so excited to be a part of it!

I can’t believe I will be celebrating my first Mother’s Day as a mom this year! I love my baby girl so much it makes me realize the love my mom feels for me and her mom as well. My picture reminds me of the circle of life. Our lives continue with each generation.

Wait, we can only submit one photo? Drat, I have 3 that all mean different things to me…
Can I at least put them all in my post?

i posted more than one but they all have a great meaning. i hope i win i could use this

Could you delete the first Mozi Esme entry? I accidentally linked it to my general blog page instead of the photo post.

And I am a US resident part of the year, so hope I still qualify . . .

I have entered my photo! Thank you for hosting such a wonderful contest!

This is a picture of my darling grandchildren, with their mom, she is sailing a38 ft sailboat, while being the greatest Mom

We’ve entered our photo on Mr. Linky , as KristiniaLeAnna. This is such a wonderful contest! I love being a Mommy and I always love having a great Mom this Mother’s Day and I hope I can be just as great to my soon to be 3 children as my Mother was to me!

What a great photo contest and what special way to portray Mother’s Day as well!

I love that picture of your mom as well. Definitely a great memory to hold on to.

P.S. I gave you an award as well:

My photo is up

Ok so for who ever wins here is the site you should go through to spend that money: http://www.nonprofitshoppingmall.com. Through this site you first choose a charity group you would like to support then you “shop the mall” (tons of your favorite stores). A percent of your sale goes straight to nonprofit you chose. Such an easy way to give, cause all you have to do is SHOP!!!!

I could really use this money.

Your photo is so sweet! count me in.

Wonderful idea for a contest. I’m in.

Great contest. You guys are awsome!

I used my picture for the centerpiece of my writing for today. This picture for me of my kids is a pause during the middle of the eye of a mental hurricane. It’s one I’ll never forget.

Thanks Janice, Susan and Egg Beaters!

Thanks! It’s cool seeing how differently everyone views motherhood. Great contest!

I just posted mine. Thanks for a great contest once again.

Great contest! Just to clarify, I am submitting the photo of my daughter by herself…

This is awesome, thank you! I just submitted one of me and my mom when I was a kid.

I am really excited about the contest! I entered one of my favorite pictures of my daughter. She has such a gentle spirit, and a genuine love of animals. It’s reflected in the picture I call “Sunshine”. I can’t wait to see all the pictures everyone enters! A BIG WAVE to Fashion Paramedic for posting about the contest on her blog! Thanks Fashion!

The photos are amazing so far! I can’t wait to see the finalists, I’m sure the photos will take my breath away!

Great contest! I am really enjoying all of the amazing photos. I entered a pic on my blog late last night!

Lovely content and its been fun looking at the other mom’s photos. Thanks!

What a fabulous contest. I am happy to be a part of it!

I had never posted a picture of my daughter on my blog before because my hubby seems to have a problem with me doing that. But I could not pass this up. I love my picture and the $1000 possible prize makes it worthwhile. Hubby will just have to deal with it - ha!

What a greta idea. I love seeing everyone’s pictures.

This is a really great contest! I love seeing the different ways in which motherhood inspires us!

http://homesweethomealabama.blogspot.com/2008/04/mothers-day-giveaway.html

5 minutes for mom would be something like a vacation for my daughter who has 2 1/2 year old quadruplets (2 boys/2 girls) AND an older son who is 3 1/2. What represents motherhood to me is to have little grandchildren to help with. We are trying to potty train the quads and my picture shows how we’re doing on that project.

I’m hoping this will put my “motherhood” picture online. Trying to potty train 4 toddlers at one time can be party time, potty time or hair pulling time.

[…] (see more mom pictures at 5minutesformom.com) […]

I love that picture of your mom! I’ve got an old one up, too!

What a great contest. I think it’s a very beautiful way to honor the mother’s out there.

Great contest!

Just send y’all an email. I love looking at everyone’s entries… great contest!

I linked to a post with a whole series of photos that sum up being a mother for me, but the second to last one sums it up best. I live for that smile and love that my job is to find ways to bring it out.

Oh, I’m so excited about this. I’m really enjoying looking at everyone’s photos, and reading the stories that go with them!

Thanks for the great contests!

Hi

What a fun idea! How can I pick just one photo? Well, I’ll give it a try.

What a great idea. I would love to see the entries.

That was so much fun!!!

Thank you for this great fun contest. Very hard to chose one photo….so many memories.

Sorry about the first entry. I realized that I didn’t give you the correct link

Thanks for the great contest.

Hey Moms … We had our fifth child back last year, and I was looking for flexible ways to make some extra money while she stayed home with kids. As we turned to the internet, and started researching different ideas, she continually ran into scam and spam at every turn. As I became more involved, we realized there were money making opportunities, they just need to be uncovered and understood. While much of this has been trial and error, we started to discover what was successful and what wasn’t. At this point, it was time to document some ideas and successes, and hopefully get some feedback and suggestion from other entrepreneurs. Of course, part of this blog in itself is not only to share ideas, but hopefully gather a viewer and referral base, to have more opportunities for everyone to be successful.

Cheers.

My photo isn’t actually precious at all. But it is a real live moment of motherhood - captured less than 10 minutes before his birth.

I’ve so enjoyed seeing all the wonderful photos that have been posted so far. I’m sure glad I’m not the one that has to narrow the choices down to 15! GOod luck to everyone!

Thanks for the great contest. I put up a funny picture that leads into the serious picture with a bit of a story there! I have the post up mentioning the contests too!!
