Aren't we fortunate to say we had a wonderful mom? I feel blessed every day that I had the best mom in the world right there next to yours Indy! Well done.

Aw, this is so sweet and charming. Nice work and well presented. Touching tribute and no spags. (hard to find spags in six words! LOL)

Good luck.

Blessings to you and mom too.

A six word story that goes on and on and on. Wonderful words to accompany a powerful image.
Hey, how'd you get knocked out of the top 10?

Thanks for sharing. Good luck in the contest.

Thanks for reviewing this incredibly short submission, Chris. I know it's a pain to have to write a review that's longer than the read. I'm not a very proflific writer, so my stay in the top ten has been doomed. lmnao
Thank you!

What a wonderful tribute for your mom! Amidst the stormy sea of life you consider her the lighthouse, you're so fortunate and she too. So touching and very well said with such a few words.

Well, to say the least, it was short and sweet. However, it says a great deal. It should do well in the contest, I hope you get somewhere with it. The six words also say that without your mom, you would be lost and and in the dark. I think most kids can relate to this and some older people too. Great entry. Keith.
