In India, Mother’s Day is celebrated on the second Sunday of every May. This year we will celebrate Mother’s Day on 9th May to express our respect and gratitude to all the mothers worldwide.
The love and support of a mother are pure and above all. But as we grow, we drift apart from her and start to spend less and less time with her. But this year could be different. Even though we have been cursing lockdown for stilling our life, we can use this time as an opportunity to spend time with our mothers and do everything we have not been able to do before. It doesn’t necessarily need to be fancy or over the top to make it memorable. Your simple gestures will be enough to make your mother’s day special.
However, it is almost laughable that we only remember to show gratitude only on that particular day. In contrast, this relation which is tied with unconditional love should be celebrated every day.
The following are some ideas to make your mother feel special and thank her for everything:-
- Give her a day off
Our mothers work 24*7. Hence, give her a break from all the work and coax her to do whatever she could not do in between household chores and taking care of us. Not only on Mother’s Day, but you can also fix a day in a week, where she is free from all the work and relax.
- Do what she loves
In between her work, she has also forgotten her hobbies and passion. Motivate her to do whatever she likes to do, whether it’s binge-watching, singing, dancing, gardening, or anything else. Remind her how to have fun, and be herself.
- Spend time with her
Why only on Mother’s Day? Take out time, and try to spend it with her as much as possible. Although, to make her day extra special, plan out some fun activities for both of you. You can arrange a picnic or BBQ in your backyard, cook together, and have a great time together.
- Make a handmade gift
Who doesn’t love gifts? A gift is a fantastic way to express our emotions. From cakes, clothes, accessories, or maybe her favorite food, you can present anything. Or if you want, you can make a gift by yourself.
- Pamper her
Nobody needs pampering and quality time than a mother. So, this Mother’s Day, pamper her with a home spa, massage, manicure, pedicure, etc., since it is not possible to go out in the current scenario.
Hence, don’t wait for a particular day to show your mother how much you love her. Get on your feet, and immediately tell her how much she means to you.
To all the mothers out there, “HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!”
