BELLEVILLE-NUTLEY, NJ— 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 Yvonne Vega who nominated Stephanie Vega of Belleville-Nutley.

What makes this mom extra special?

Stephanie is a wonderful daughter, an amazing mom of two, Kaylin and Jordan, a loving sister to her siblings, and fiancee to a wonderful man, Joey, all while battling with her Crohn’s disease. There isn't anything she would not do for anyone; she loves you unconditionally and has a huge heart. She is a softball and soccer mom. She doesn't miss a game. I am beyond proud of the woman she has become and continues to be. Never change.

Why do you feel your Mom deserves the spotlight?

Stephanie is such a beautiful person. She is full of wisdom, compassion and courage. Even when she is not feeling good due to Crohn’s she pushes through like there isn't anything wrong. I'm so proud of her and how she is raising my grandchildren. I can't wait to witness all the amazing things she will do in life.

Happy Mother's Day to Stephanie Vega, and thank you for all you do!
