In honor of Mother's Day, I thought it would be fun to Sophie and I list our 5 favorite fictional moms. After all we are moms, and there's something about these 5 fictional moms that we've come to admire. 


In no order here are our top 5 favorite fictional Moms:

1. Charlotte, from The Infernal Devices Series

Though Charlotte hasn't given birth to the Shadowhunters she oversees at the London institute, she's a mother in very sense of what it means to be a mother. Her fierce devotion and protectiveness of Will, Jem, Jessamine and Tessa, whom I might add aren't much younger than she is, is what makes her one of our favorites, and has won our admiration for all she does.

2. Jocelyn, from The Mortal Instruments Series

Jocelyn is what each of us Shadowhunter mamas are-fierce mama bears who will do anything to protect our children, even if that means being a bit overly protective and dealing with those repercussions. Sophie & I totally get Jocelyn, and while we may not agree with everything she does, we understand why she does what she does. When it comes down to it, you'll do anything to protect your children.

3. Mrs. Weasley, from The Harry Potter series

Need we say more. Who doesn't love this mother. She knits, she cooks, and she will do ANYTHING for her children. Mrs Weasley is one of those moms you love from the moment you meet her. Sophie has more leverage in adding her to this list, because I'm still reading this series. I am however half way through the series and she's definitely on my list of favorite moms.

4. Rachel, from The Gallagher Girls series

Again, this is a series I'm currently reading, but Sophie loves Rachel, the mom from The Gallagher Girls series. She says she is the mom I'll totally get. She does all the things a mom in her position would do, and she's a mom that she totally loves. 

5. Cassel's mom, from The Curse Workers series

Cassel's mom is one of those women that makes us so frustrated while we're reading about the things she does, but at the same time we love her for the fact she will do anything for her son. She has the best intentions, but her actions aren't always the best, which is something we can relate to. NOT that would go changing our son's childhood girl friend into a cat or anything *evil laugh* or would we..... 

Of course there are many other fabulous fictional mothers we've come to adore, and have enjoyed reading about. These were the ones that stood out in our minds the most. Who is one of your favorite fictional moms?
