As I think back to my own childhood, the one thing I regret now is that I rarely let my mom know that I was grateful for her and all the things she did for us. This is probably the typical kid behavior – self-absorbed, and not realizing how much your mom takes care of you and supports you.
But, I can tell you for sure, that after my mom passed away when I was in my mid 30’s, I wish I had told her.
Today, I am a mom, and even though my kids are grown, it always means the world to me if they call and just say they are thinking about me and that they care.
Here’s a really thoughtful way to show Mom how much you love her and appreciate her this Mother’s Day.
