    Mother's day is a special day for all of us here. Every year, we do a Mother's Day contest and we have always had great participation. This year, we are opening up the contest to the broader blogging world outside Indusladies.com.

    Are you a parent who keeps pictures of their children in her wallet?

    Do you have a wall in the bedroom full of photos of your kids in different stages of their lives?

    Does the office table/wall paper of your computer have your kids’ photo?

    Our children are joys, they are terrors, they are challenges … and they totally enrich our lives.

    They have the capacity to surprise us at times with words of wisdom that teach us life’s greatest lessons!

    They can drive us wild with rage

    They can make us proud

    They are the biggest milestone in our lives

    They make us who we are “MOTHERS”

    Do share with us your special parenting experience. The one that makes your family laugh, get sentimental, warms your heart, or makes you weep; the tale which would go into the annals of your family history. We at Indusladies would love to read about it.

    What's the Contest?

    • Bloggers need to write a blog post (in their own blog) on their best parenting experience. Attach the above IL banner to your blog post and add a link to IL.

    Dear IL'ites,

    This is an official Indusladies.com competition. I had requested a blogger friend of mine Ritu to help manage this contest as we are reaching out to external bloggers as well.

    Just as always, regardless of wherever you have your blog (inside or outside of IL), hope you can participate and win!

    Hi Supriya,

    Yes, the condition of 6months old blog and 30 entries is 'excluded' for a resident blogger of IL.

    Go ahead and make your entry. Good Luck.

    Hi Shanti, Glad that you are interested. Unfortunately, this contest is for bloggers only. You should go ahead and get started with a blog in IL (write to induslady@indusladies.com) so that you can participate in the next blogger-only competition.

    Hi JustAni, Glad that you liked the idea. Please tell all your blogger friends about this contest so that they can participate. Use "Email Blog Entry" icon at the bottom right of the blog entry. Thank you.
