Win One of Ten SanDisk USB Flash Drives in our Motherhood Moments Contest
 |
Fashion and function for photos on the go…
The SanDisk Cruzer® Gator USB Flash Drive is an alligator-skin design flash drive that lets you take your data wherever you go. At grandma’s, at work, or wherever you want to show off your kids, you can have your favorite photos conveniently stored on this funky little flash drive.
So pack up your memories – favorite photos, videos, scanned-in
drawings, etc – in one of these stylish “suitcases” and take them with you or send them to out of town family as a gift. (I also like to know that I have my favorite photos safe in another location. The SanDisk Cruzer® Gator USB Flash Drive is a great solution. Your family has a convenient way to store photos and videos of yours and you know your most precious memories are safe in an alternative location.)
The Cruzer® Gators are available in 2GB, 4GB and 8GB, (the 8GB is available only in the US,) and come in black, pink and red. The 2GB retails for $24.99, the 4GB for $39.99 and the 8GB for $79.99.
This Mother’s Day, we have ten Cruzer® Gators to give away. The winners will have their choice of either black or red in the 4GB size or pink in the 2GB size.

So many favorite moments with my daughters!!
My favorite motherhood moments are watching my kids shine. I get such a proud feeling watching my son run track, or my daughter on stage in a play.
saying i love you
By Mom being by my side when I gave birth to my daughter.
I always keep the lessons that my mom taught me close to my heart and use them in my own family. I remember once when she told me “I could always come home.” Home is now with my own family, but it is also loving concept.
I’m sure my favorite Motherhood moment will be when my daughter is grown into a woman and embarking on starting her own family.
My adult son is autistic. He was not diagnosed until age 6. (This was just prior to the release of the movie “Rainman.” Most of us had never heard of autism in those days, my husband and me included.) I started telling the doctor that something was wrong when he was 2, but the doctor just “assured” me that children develop at different rates, and not to worry. (The “hysterical mother” attitude is what I call it.) At 4 I wrote down every word he had ever said, including naming pictures in books. It came to 100 words. We were visiting my parents when he was 6, and he called me Mom for the first time in his life. I figured out that he heard me calling my mother “Mom,’ and he realized then that this was what you called a mother. (I think that prior to that, he felt that if I was in the room, he didn’t need to call me anything, and if I wasn’t in the room, what was the point?) Twenty-two years later, I still tear up when I think of the first time my son called me Mom.
I dont have a fav because one comes every day
I had two extra special motherhood moments – both happened when I laid eyes on my two sons for the first time.
holding my children in my arms for the very first time. priceless
Great giveaway
It’s hard to choose just one favorite motherhood moment, but I agree with others comments about the first time holding your newborn. It really is an amazing moment
After many years of trying to conceive, I now have a beautiful dd. I just love it when she looks at me with her big brown eyes and smiles. I am so in love..
Giving birth to my two wonderful children!
I gave birth to 4 wonderful children 3 girls and one boy
my favorite motherhood moment was when my daughter tried to cut her own hair, and came in to my room with a giant clump of hair an a bald spot and was crying and saying “glue it back, glue it back!”
hahahaha!
I have lots of sweet moments but I thought I would share one that makes me smile and laugh. It really was a close call!
Great to become a mother. It is very exciting.
Recently, I got to watch my daughter interact with Disney characters at Disney World.
My mom has dementia so memories are crucial to me. Computers, cameras and jump drives are my secret to saving the memories. My favorite memory is yet to come as I await my first grandchild!
Anytime my daughter makes something for me (with her signature mermaid girl on it), I melt. Such effort she puts into those cards.
I’m not a mom, but I was tending my cousin’s daughter and was enthralled by how she would talk about how much she loved her mom. Can’t wait until I become one!
Got my link added I believe!
THE FIRST DAY AT HOME WITH MY FIRST BORN. OH WHAT A PRICELESS FEELING
My daughter just lost her first tooth! ahhh melt my heart, she is growing up way too fast!
My family is trying to update mother/grandmother to have and be more tech savy. Perhaps this would be the beginning. Who knows!!!!!!! Many thanks and Happy Mother’s Day to ALL who enter. SW
My favorite motherhood moment was when my older son was born, he MADE me a mother… and my second son made me a better mother!
My favorite motherhood moment was when my kids
