In I Love You, Mom! , Kelly Ripa and such luminaries as Sally Jesse Raphael, Diane Sawyer, Donna Hanover, Christine Todd Whitman, and Carole Black, each share a personal story about the most important person in their life -- their mother. Stories are told of countless acts of kindness, humorous tales of bad hair cuts, ugly prom gowns, dates gone wrong, to serious stories of strength in dealing with illness, divorce, and death. In addition, there are inspirational stories of triumph over adversity, and success after failure. These touching words of thanks and admiration come from all walks of life and remind us how mothers transform our lives, long after we've stopped being children, and even as we raise our own children. With blank pages for the reader to contribute their own loving story, I Love You, Mom! is a Mother's Day gift every mom will cherish.
