Here are a variety of questions to consider, keeping the goal of Making Mom Happy on Mother’s Day in mind. You know yourself and your own mother better than anyone. Trust that the right questions will resonate with you.

What does my mother mean to me?
What do I want her to know?
How do I want to make her feel?
What do I think she’d really like?
What would she really like?

What can I buy her that will make her happy?
What is a feasible price point for me?

Knowing mom, how will she feel if I spend money I don’t have?
How will I feel if I buy her something knowing it will put me into greater debt?
How else can I acknowledge her and show her what she means to me?

What can I do for her?
What can I say to her?
What can I write?
What are some of my fondest memories with her?

How would asking her for forgiveness or forgiving her be a gift and move our relationship in a new direction?
What can we do together to create new memories?

What does my mother do for me that I can show her I noticed and I can thank her for?

~Mothers do the best with what they know, what they can and with all they have at any given time. On this day and everyday, acknowledge her, love her and know that doing so will be as much a gift to you as it is to her.

                Have a Special MOTHER’S DAY this Sunday!
