Hey Kay, you've successfully posted something in this category, which is all you need to do to enterRead More the contest! If you aren't able to upload a photo, that's okay. Text also counts as an entry. Just post a few sentences telling us why you as a mother or your mom are deserving of a spa day and maybe a quick memory of a fun time with your mom or your kids (depending on who you are entering the contest for). Thanks for reaching out and let me know if you have any questions! -Jessie
