Happy Mother's Day Wishes for Real Latina Mamis

We all love our mothers, and here at Latina.com we wanted to give you, our beloved readers, a chance to tell us all about why your mom is so special. We received so many beautiful submissions on our Facebook and Twitter pages that we were truly overwhelmed. In the end, we could only showcase 10 wonderful mamis and their daughters; but every mother we saw was special in one way or another.

From single mamis to abuelitas raising generations of babies, this Mother's Day we celebrate these unsung heroes.

Happy Mother's Day!

"My mami taught me to put me first and not a man, while showing me (in typical Latina fashion) to cook, clean and take care of a good man. She taught me there is a way to do both without ever comprising my integrity. Tough times ahead? Well, you better keep your head up, always have class and never let them see you sweat."
