Show your mom you love her.
It may not always look like it, but moms do want, and need, to be loved. Yes, they like to get a hug and hear you say it, but it is your deeds that will speak the loudest.
Here are some things you can do to show your mom how much you really love her (and appreciate everything she does for you):
- Offer to help before she asks.
- Do not fuss when she wants to hug you.
- Don’t let her ask you twice to do something.
- When you go to the shop, ask if you can get her something.
- Replace the toilet roll that is nearly done with a new one.
- Help with the laundry or put it away when it has been ironed.
- Keep the peace between your brothers / sisters and yourself.
- Give her a night off by making dinner or doing the dishes.
- Prepare a bubble bath for her or place some sweets on her pillow. (Just check if she can take a bath before you prepare it.)
- Pick up and put away your stuff so she does not have to.
- Get dad to buy her some flowers, or give you the money to do so.
Moms who do not feel they have support from their family are more likely to be unhappy than those who do get support.
Also, moms usually work 15 hours more a week than dads. It’s true. You find it hard to believe? Then check it out. See how much time she spends on laundry, cooking, picking up after everybody, bringing dad a beer (because he is too lazy to go and get it himself) etc etc etc. And she still manages to do all this with a smile after a hard day’s work. So, maybe, instead of moaning, you must try the smiling thing next time she asks you to do something.

is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
