While not exactly rare.  Mother's where they aren't background charas and alive are pretty uncommon. 

If you want to see one where the mother is in the forefront of the story as a support  / important chara to the child MC. 

My Mother Gets Married Again

And

The Monster Knight Wants Maternity Leave

Are both good reads.
