Happy Mothers Day

Happy Mothers Day to all you sweet fandomeers out there :) Today we're going to celebrate the moms of the universe, or that is, the fandom moms.
(Spoilers for Harry Potter, Hunger Games and Percy Jackson.)
I mean, oh my gosh. The Harry Potter moms? They are the coolest moms ever.
 

Those three ladies. Lily died so she could save her son, and even through her death her love for her son protected him throughout the rest of his childhood and teenage years. Molly fought in a war while taking care of seven children of her own, not to mention all the other kids she treated as if they were in her own family. Narcissa? If you're willing to pretend you're evil for your family, I'd say you're pretty cool.
And in the Hunger Games, when you live in a country like Panem you'd probably do anything for your kids. Mrs. Everdeen did have a rough time when her husband died and she fell into that horrible depression. But once she got out of that, she tried to make up for it. She's the kind of mom that would do anything her kids asked. She started working again and taking care of not only her own children but all the people in their town and their children. Then when the rebellion started she worked hard as a doctor and a loving mother. I am the biggest Mrs. Everdeen fangirl ever. And while we're here I would like to mention Hazelle, Gale's mom. Hazelle had a family and was pregnant when her husband died. It must have been pretty hard to lose him especially when she had so many young kids to take care of. But Hazelle didn't let that stop her. Just like Mrs. Everdeen had Katniss, Hazelle had Gale to help her and she started working, and you know what, her family did okay. Hazelle, you're amazing.
Last but not at all least, Sally Jackson! When your son is known by mortals for blowing up the school and known by monsters as the son of Poseidon that needs to be destroyed, you'd think you would get a little impatient. Sally wasn't impatient for a second. She took care of her son with love and patience, and she even married a horrible man for him. She wanted to be a writer but couldn't afford to go to school, so she worked hard and still tried to take care of her family. Eventually she got to go to school, married a man that she actually loved, and Percy saved the world!
It seems good things happen to the best moms :)
