ST. CHARLES, IL— Moms do so much for everyone around them. We try to celebrate them all year long, but Mother's Day is a perfect opportunity to shout it from the rooftops and post it on Patch: Mom rocks!

Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize the awesome moms and mom figures in communities like yours.

This submission comes from Kathy Lopez, who nominated Cherry Potts of St. Charles.

What makes your Mom extra special?

My mother has raised, nourished and been a confident mother, grandmother and rock to 3 children, 9 grandchildren, 10+ great-grandchildren. Her generosity and wisdom have been a huge source of growth throughout our entire lives. She does everything for us with grace and dignity. She is truly our savior and matriarch.

Why do you feel your Mom deserves the spotlight?

She always gives to everyone else, and we have never been able to repay her for the life she has given us. I would do anything to show her how much we appreciate her!

Happy Mother's Day to Cherry Potts, and thank you for all you do!
