'Wonderful' Concord Mom 'Is The Kindest & Most Genuine Person'

CONCORD, NH— 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 Samantha Upton who nominated Christine Upton of Concord.

What makes your Mom extra special?

What makes my mom special is her ability to always see the positive. My mom has been through so much and continues to look at each day as a new day and look for the better in everything. She is the biggest fighter I know, and the most wonderful mother and best friend. My mom has always meant the world to me, she tries to put everyone ahead of herself and sometimes forgets how special of a person she is. My mom has a great sense of humor and always tries to make everyone laugh. She has always put my happiness and everyone else’s ahead of her own. I believe my mom has a special heart that’s really rare nowadays. She’s the kindest and most genuine person I know. I love my mom so much.

Why do you feel your Mom deserves the spotlight?

I feel my mom deserves the spotlight because she is an an all-around amazing human being. She gets up with a smile on her face and ends her day the same way. My mom is the biggest supporter I know. She has and will never let me down. She supports every move I make whether she agrees with it or not. She helps me to be the person I am today and is the best mother I know. My mother has given me so much motivation and confidence to get through my life as a teenager in high school. I don’t always show my mom the appreciation she deserves but she deserves the absolute world. I couldn’t imagine who I would be without the biggest role model I have. My mom deserves the spotlight for having a heart like no one I know.

Happy Mother's Day to Christine Upton, and thank you for all you do!
