Mother's Day is celebrated in different ways around the world. However, it is safe to say that most countries consider this day as an opportunity to honour mothers with kind words and gifts.
If there is one word that describes an extraordinary mother, it is 'perfection'. To have given birth to children and to have raised them successfully, with all the struggles that can go with it, is no small feat. Even when their own children are grown, many mothers never stop caring for them or thinking about their happiness. A loving mother will always be a loving mother. She always gives her best to help her family flourish.
Below is a selection of Mother's Day texts and messages. I hope you will find these ideas useful in finding the right words to express your love for your mother. Of course you can mix different ideas :)
- I know I haven't always shown it, but I am so grateful that you are my mother.
- You have been such a positive influence on my life and I can't thank you enough.
- Happy Mother's Day Mom!
- Thank you mum for being there for me when I need someone to really understand me. Without you in my life, things would not be the way they are today. You mean a lot to me and I want you to know that I love you!
- Roses are red, violets are blue; I love you, Mom! Happy Mother's Day!
- Happy Mother's Day from me and my brother/sister!
- I know I don't tell you this often, but thank you for all you do for me/us, Mom!
Some 'off-the-shelf' ideas that may help:
- Thank your mother and tell her what you like about her (be specific!)
- Give her tips on how she can spend Mother's Day (e.g. for younger children, 'I hope you get some quiet time while I'm at school!')
- Tell funny stories or quotes from your childhood
- Tell her how much you admire her (and why)
- Tell your mother what she means to you and how she inspires you!
Another great way to thank her for everything is to update your Facebook status with heartfelt words. For all the mothers in the world, it's important to let them know that they are appreciated on Mother's Day, because this day is just as important as any other.
A mother is such a powerful person that she deserves several days in the year to be recognised for all her hard work. Mother's Day is a great opportunity to show mothers how much we love and appreciate them.
