mother's day

A waitress at a Waffle House in North Carolina received a $1000 tip from a customer on Mother's Day, but the restaurant wouldn't let her have it. In fact, they REFUNDED it.

From changing diapers to homework to don't drink and drive, the sacrifices for being a mom are immeasurable, but the bill is always marked 'no charge'.

Teddy Bridgewater is one of the top quarterback prospects in this year's NFL Draft. Before he hears his name called, the former Louisville star had a surprise for his mom.

Watch the reaction of these applicants and guess what the job is!

Oklahoma City Thunder star Kevin Durant notched his first MVP award this week and he made sure his acceptance speech would turn as many heads as his play.

Mother's Day is Sunday, May 11, 2014. Don't let Mom do the cooking on her day! Treat her to breakfast in bed or take her out for a hot meal that somebody else prepared and cleaned up after! These Lafayette area restaurants will be open on Mother's Day, 2014...

Mr. T has made a successful, enduring career out of being a tough guy. The tough guy apparently has a softer side. He loves children, and proudly proclaims himself to be a "Mama's Boy."

We're still on the fence as to whether NBC's Zoe Saldana-starring 'Rosemary's Baby' miniseries remake can live up to the scares of the original, but all the same, the newest iteration of motherly horror at last has a premiere date. Fear will officially be born anew on NBC this coming May, and Mother's Day to boot!

Most grandparents consider the grandkids even more special than their own kids.  Why?

Labor pain simulation on these two men has to be the best 'get even' event ever.

Mom taught us a bunch of things, and thanks to Cathy Daudey, who sent me this email, we can now reflect on the things our mothers embedded into our brains.

Mothers have been communicating with their children via handwritten notes for years. Some mothers put more of a humorous spin on their notes than others, however. With Mother's Day right around the corner, we're hoping the children of the moms behind these hilarious notes have something awesome planned for them:    

I Owe it all to My Mother.... 1.    My mother taught me TO APPRECIATE A JOB WELL DONE . "If you're going to kill each other, do it outside.. I just finished cleaning."

Retailers and greeting card companies would like you to think Father’s Day is just as important as Mother’s Day. Is that really the case?

As the 2012 presidential race continues to heat up, voters are paying close attention to all the candidates (we’re hoping), even how they react to Mother’s Day. To celebrate moms everywhere (and in an effort to snag your future votes), President Barack Obama and presidential candidate Mitt Romney both released video tributes to honor the most important women in their lives.

This is Melba Montgomery's video version of the 1974 hit 'No Charge'.   Being a Mother is a gift yet the pay isn't so great.  But I bet if you polled Moms all over the world, most would answer, no payment is necessary.  All Mom ever has to hear is, "I love you Mom" and the bill is paid in full.

Happy Mother's Day Acadiana!  I thought I'd re-post this in honor of Mother's Day 2012.  I have been told many times that children are special, but grand children or even more special.
