“The work of a mother is hard, too often unheralded work…Please know that it is worth it then, now, and forever.” – Jeffrey R. Holland 
Mother’s Day is just a week away and it is time to celebrate! I am so grateful to be a mother and absolutely love that all of you cute moms have joined me on this adventure and journey of motherhood. As you all know, being a mom is not easy. It takes a lot of work and a lot patience. SO – in celebration of mothers EVERYWHERE, I am excited to introduce you to MOTHERHOOD POWER WEEK! 
Here is how this week is going to go down: 1) Every day I am going to post a picture of a Motherhood Item. 2) You, my wonderful friends, are going to find that household item and take a picture of it. You can hold it, you can take a selfie with it, you can have your kids hold it, you can put it somewhere random… however you would like. 3) You are going to post the picture on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter using the #motherhoodpowerweek AND TAG Today’s The Best Day on Facebook, @todaysthebestday1 on Instagram or @todays_bestday on Twitter. 4) ENTER DAILY! The more pictures you post, the more likely you are going to win! 5) What do you win? What is the prize? Today’s The Best Day will be giving the winner a $25 GIFT CARD to my FAVORITE store for Motherhood Items… TARGET! I feel like that is every mother’s escape place. So the winner will be able to go on a little shopping spree, which we all deserve!
DAY 1: How many hours do moms spend in the kitchen?! Find A SPATULA!! 
DAY 2: EVERY mom has a pile of laundry waiting for them! Find LAUNDRY… clean or dirty. 🙂 At our house I tend to be able to wash them, but putting them away is a whole different story! 
DAY 3: Happy Hump Day! The week is half over! Today I want to see your GUILTY PLEASURE! What do you do on your down time {if you ever have any!}? Maybe I should say, what would you LIKE to do on your down time? 🙂 My guilty pleasure… chocolate and The Bachelor! I have to have chocolate DAILY – it doesn’t matter what it is… If it is chocolate, I will take it! 🙂 AND of course The Bachelor. The Bachelorette starts in just a few weeks and I am literally counting down the days! It is the one show I actually watch and am addicted to! Let me see YOUR Guilty Pleasures ladies! 
DAY4: CLEANING DAY! I always try to get our house in order before the weekend, because I am such a slacker on the weekends! So today – show me your cleaning supplies! Time to clean the toilets? Do the dishes? Maybe some mopping? What is your favorite chore? I love cleaning my kitchen and floors! If my kitchen is clean, I don’t care how messy everything else is. Oh and Windex is a miracle worker. I use it on everything! haha!
DAY5: It’s FRIDAY!! One of my favorite things to do everyday is PLAY! I absolutely love just being with Laila! Today I want to see your PLAY TIME! Read a book! Go to the park! Sing a song! Go for a walk! Be creative and have FUN!
Day 6: Music is such a big part of my life. We love singing and it is completely normal to see us just break out and have a dance party at any moment! Today we are going to rock on to our Motherhood Anthems! What is your family’s favorite song? We chose Bruno Mars “Treasure” because Laila has loved that song since she was just a few months old! I can’t wait to see your videos!
Day 7: Today is the last day of Motherhood Power Week! It has been so fun celebrating with all of you!! I feel so grateful to be a mom! Today I want to see your FAVORITE thing about Motherhood! What do you love about being a mom? I LOVE having a little mini-me as a best friend!! She is my little doll that I get to play dress up with and hang out with ALL day! I honestly couldn’t ask for anything more! Happy Mother’s Day!
The winner will be selected on random.org Monday morning!

Danielle Davis
May 5, 2014 at 9:55 pm (10 years ago)That is exactly what I was thinking! We celebrate birthday weeks around here too! So why not have a week for Mothers Day too?! 🙂

May 5, 2014 at 9:19 pm (10 years ago)Hi , I’m not sure if I should leave a general comment here but I had to say thank you, I have been searching for something like this site for a long time !!! After reading your intro on your homepage I felt like I was reading my own story . I am blessed to have 3 beautiful children and a husband whom I have been with since age 17 (that’s 27 yrs now 🙂 . Our family is my life , Brian works so hard everyday so I’m afforded the opportunity to stay home and take care of our children , they are now 15, 13 , and my baby is 12 . I went to college and worked for many years as a nurse , I wasn’t able to work , raise my children, and take care of my husband the way I wanted to or the way they needed me too . After many talks we agreed our family and marriage must come first . I have never been more happy or fulfilled . I love this website and look forward to reading more . Best wishes on your new family and wonderful marriage !! Tammy
