Congratulations to Katherine Wills! Today she was named ACT Banardos Australia’s Mother of the Year 2013.

That’s a pretty cool thing to be, I bet her kids are bragging to everyone they know.

Katherine will now attend the national announcement gala luncheon to be held at Doltone House, Darling Island Wharf in Sydney on Friday, 10th May, which is where the 2013 Barnardos Australia’s Mother of the Year will be named.

Barnardos, one of Australia’s leading child welfare charities, holds these national awards to champion good parenting and raise awareness about child abuse and neglect.

“All children and young people deserve safe and loving homes. We hold these national awards to celebrate mothers who provide a haven for children, often in very difficult circumstances. They are an inspiration to us all,” said Barnardos Director of Fundraising and Marketing, Manisha Amin.

I’m sure Katherine is a pretty rad Mum, but my Mum just flew over from America to spend my 30th birthday with me this week and brought me one of THESE.

Just saying…
