Happy Mothers' Day !!!

India

Here's to all the mothers out there and especially to my MOM who has done so much for me. All the little things count- like the times when i was a kid, i wanted barbie dolls and accessories for it, my mom got it for me. My brother wanted cars called hot wheels (the brand that made the cars) she got one for him almost every month. He still has a huge collection now. There was a time when we used to worry her for chips, so literally every evening she gave us money to buy them. She didn't wanna deprive us of anything as she was an orphan and missed out on so many things. That's how selfless she was and is. My dad was strict when it came to money matters so we got only the basic stuff but my mom was always there to pamper us. My aunts used to tell her she was spoiling us but all she ever wanted was for us to be happy!! My mom has always been special to me and though I can't express it to her, I have always admired her. So here's to you mom- for all your love , sacrifices and care you showed us!!! :-)

You are indeed so lucky to have your mom. My mom is the opposite. She's practical and health conscious. So, what she would give us are the things that we really need and the foods that she thinks would be healthy for us. She'd give us money to buy clothes and other stuff that we want but she always makes sure that it's not too much. I've learned so much from her. I owe her what I am now. I may not liked it when I was younger, but I realized everything when I got older. She's the best mother for me and I love her so much.

Well everyone is different, your mom may have treated you differently and then you must have thought that she's doing it just to deprive you of the good things in life but in here hearts of hearts, she meant well. As you grow older you realize it and your grateful to her for all that she did for you and taught you :-)

but i bother that we are just celebrating one day in a year, as Happy Mother Day and then we forgotting her. i Mean so many people running for money or something other. I seen many people.. Did our parents choose any special day or moment to express their love for us? Will this one day be enough for us to express our love?

Its no big deal, the day is just a symbolic representation and a day dedicated to mothers all over the world. Doesn't not mean that on other days you ignore your mom. You don't need a specific day to tell your mom she's special or how much you appreciate and care for her. Express it whenever you can!! There's nothing to hold you back!!

I'm glad you have such a nice memory of your mom. My mom and I get along OK now. I think we're even friends. It took a while because like every other mom and daughter throughout history, we had our disagreements. Now that we live in separate houses, it's much better. Although, we still tell everyone that we can't hang out for more than 7 days in a row. Except under extraordinary circumstances. We laugh about that now, but it's true.

Of course first of all I would like to greet all the moms out there a Happy Mothers' Day!!! Most especially to my very own mother! This would be the perfect day to thank them and show them how important they are for us. We will never be right here right now without them. The most especial and irreplaceable woman in our life. Again happy mothers' day to all the mothers who gave their life just to give their children the best life they can give...

“Time is money." However,Mother'Day,busy city,but also slows the step motherly love,filial Daughters effort,hard work of the mother for a different holiday spending. But in her mind ,not the manner in which to celebrate with my mother,do not and a "Happy Mother's Day" more warmth.Even gently brought to a "Mom is good",or simply to accompany her mother to eat a meal,they are actually expressing the same message:"Mom,I love you!"
