PLAINFIELD, 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 Nina Ostapkowicz who nominated Carol Gallaga of Plainfield.

What makes your Mom extra special?

She’s always been here for us.

Why do you feel your Mom deserves the spotlight?

Because she has never had any recognition yet.

Happy Mother's Day to Carol Gallaga, and thank you for all you do!
