    Between the barrage of reminders and the scramble to find the right card, it's easy forget why we really celebrate Mother's Day. It's a reminder of one of life's wildest moments: the day you met your first love. A few weeks ago we asked the Shine community to share their first photos as a mom. We had a feeling we'd get some beautiful responses, but we didn't know they'd make us tear up. Take a look at some of our readers' first mom photos, and keep sharing your own on our Flickr pool. Box of tissues recommended.
