MAPLETON The children in Nancy Madsen's, Heather Bingham's and Lara Twede's classes at Hobble Creek Elementary School have no problem when it comes to explaining why they love their mothers.
The consensus seems to be that good mothers do laundry, cook food, drive to the fun and dispense kisses and love at no charge.
