Mother’s Day is a hard day for some, but it can also be a really special day to celebrate all the different mother figures that people might celebrate on this day. These could range from biological mothers, to stepmothers, grandmothers, aunts, family friends and others! But the beauty of it all is knowing how to honour them, and show them just how much you truly appreciate everything they have done for you.
Whoever you celebrate, it may be the people that have stuck through you when you have been at your lowest and at your highest, the ones that have given you unsolicited advice when you needed it the most, and have helped you grow into the person that your are today. We all look up to someone as we grow up, and these people can have the most impact on us as parental figures.
So, to celebrate the mother figures in our lives that have showed us the love we deserve – it is only right that we can do the same back.
Here are different ways we can honour them, for all the love, care and hard work they have put in to us:
1. Spend quality time with them: Make plans to spend time with them doing activities they enjoy or just talking about life.
2. Write a heartfelt letter: Express your feelings and gratitude in a handwritten letter, telling them how much you appreciate their love and guidance.
3. Surprise them with a gift: A thoughtful gift that shows you know their interests and passions will make them feel special and loved.
4. Cook a meal: A homecooked meal or taking them out to their favourite restaurant is a great way to show appreciation for everything they have done for you.
5. Help with chores: Doing household chores or running errands can ease their burden and show that you value and care for them.
6. Share memories: Take the time to reminisce and share happy memories from your childhood or significant moments in your life that they were part of.
7. Be present: The most important thing is to be present and attentive to their needs, whether it’s emotional support or just a listening ear. Being there for them and showing them kindness and compassion will go a long way in honouring the mother figures in our lives.
