To honor mothers around Prince George's County, Patch asked users to upload photos of their moms and leave a comment about what makes them so great. The heartfelt expressions of love and gratitude made it too hard to choose, so Patch randomly chose a winner.

And the winner of our best mom contest is... drumroll, please... is Terri Moore, of Bowie.

Moore's daughter, Cindy Freland said:

My mom is the best in Prince George's County because she taught me to be strong, bold and independent. Because of her outlook on life and what she believes, I have been able to run a successful business for 15 years. She taught me that life is what you go after and not what you settle on. She is smart, active, happy, full of life and 82 years old. I love you mom, Terri Moore.

Terri will receive a $50 VISA gift card. Look for a post later on Patch that showcases photos of moms throughout the state of Maryland.

Thank you to all of the entrants and Patch wishes all of the local moms a happy Mother's Day!

Just because the contest is over doesn't mean it's too late to share your best memories. Upload photos and videos or tell everyone in the comments why your mom is the best.
