Today's post is in honor of mamas and all they do for us. They raised us, helped us with our schoolwork, and in some cases, managed our multimillion-dollar careers.

So we salute you, momager, and everything you do for your child's career. Some famous momagers:

>> Dina Lohan, also known as DiLo: The Long Island Lo-lita has had such a positive impact on the careers of daughters Lindsay and Ali, she was recently named "Mom of the Year" by the "Mingling Moms" of Long Island.

"I'm surprised. I'm very delighted. I think she deserves it," Ann Sullivan, Dina's mother and Lindsay's grandmother, told CBS in New York.

DiLo is so dedicated to her daughters' career, she is allowing E! to film her for a reality show called "Living Lohan," in which she helps guide Ali's singing and acting career. The show is set to debut this summer, according to Access Hollywood.

>> Jonnetta Patton, Usher's mom: Like many mothers and sons, Jonnetta and Usher have had their ups and downs. But very few sons get the opportunity to fire their mother like Usher did in 2007.

He told blackvoices.com through his publicist: "We are both very happy but are now working in different areas of the business. This is great for me because it means I now get to have my mother strictly as my mother with no added pressure. No one will ever know how much she has taught me as it pertains to living my life and having a successful career. ... I feel its best to separate my business life from my personal life."

Despite the reported blood feud, Jonnetta told People last year that Usher's new baby with wife Tameka Foster is a "blessing."

And let's not forget to raise our champagne flutes for the momagers on "I Know My Kid's a Star" and "Crowned: The Mother of All Pageants."

Who's your favorite momager? How would you feel if your mom managed your career?
