Happy Mothers Day (and some of my favorite TV mothers)

Happy Mothers' Day to all of the mothers, grandmothers, aunts, and even those mothers to be.  (Did I miss anyone?)

Over the years, we've loved TV mothers — i.e. all of those "mom" characters we grew up watching.

Here is my list of favorites:

1) Mrs. Cleaver in Leave it to Beaver.  Barbara Billingsley died in late 2010.  She will forever be Beaver's mom and one of the most endearing characters in TV history.  Frankly, didn't Mrs. Cleaver remind you of your mom? 

2) Mrs. Ingalls of Little House in the Prairie.  She was just great.  This is a show about the "frontier mother," the courageous woman of the frontier.

3) On a more hilarious note, let me add Mrs. Adams of The Adams Family.  Wasn't Mrs. Morticia Adams just hilarious?  Doesn't every mother have a bit of Mrs. Adams in her personality?

Again, we salute all of the mothers today.  We hope they all have a lovely day.

"They're creepy and they're kooky, Mysterious and spooky,

They're all together ooky, The Addams Family. 

Their house is a museum Where people come to see 'em 

They really are a scream The Addams Family. 

(Neat) (Sweet) (Petite) 

So get a witches shawl on A broomstick you can crawl on 

We're gonna pay a call on The Addams Family."
