Nobody can fill that position

You are right, sweetie. No one can ever fill a mother's or wife's position. To thank her, she has to be loved, respected and cared for as they care for you. A lot of apreciation is always welcome in what they do for their families every single day. TATA.

I believe that mothers/wife play a major role in a family. They technically has no rest days. and they are the last to be prioritized when buying new things. And I'm not telling this because I'm a woman that fits the criteria of a mother and wife.But more of, in all the places I been, I always see that mothers are those who does all the important things in detail. As per their budgeting, cleaning and even recycling things inside the house. They are the resourceful and solution finder in the house as per their husband and kids' needs..I salute every women in a family, they keep their family close and holds them from any pain and bad things even though they are sick and feeling sad themselves. especially for the housewives, who evolve and dedicate their daily life to their family

I would love for my sons to call me very often, give me big hugs when they see me & come often to see me. That would be wonderful & all the thanks i would need.

the time comes when you can express it when she gets old and or disabled. no longer able to do everything. then you are helpful and tell her you are paying her back for all the times she helped you and worked, cooked, etc. for you. you understand and in turn explain to others, i need to do this because shes been such help to me for years even if they dont understand.

I don’t think anyone truly appreciates how much work the woman does until they attempt to do it themselves! I am a home maker, a mother, a wife and a freelance writer who tries to make a few pennies with the written word! In order for me to do all I need to do in one day I have to be up and out of bed by four am. I don’t mind so much because I love getting up early but it would be nice if my family stopped just once in a while and asked me to put my feet up and cook me dinner! We need to be appreciated by those we love; we need that more than any other reward!

Being a mom or a wife is a career but doesn't ask any salary in return. The love that we can give them is enough compensation for their hardwork, and that is a priceless salary. You can express your love and thanks to them by first, being a good child, helping them in household chores if you have time and if you can, or bring her to a spa or massage and tell her that she needs to relax also, treat him in a restaurant where she can eat her favorite foods, or just ask her to relax at home and not to do anything, because you will take charge of everything.

hi rameschow When mother is sick the family instead of being lazy should grab the broom, dustpans, cleaning clothes, do the dishes, cook the meals and let poor mom rest till she is well again. Most men expect way too much from this base of the family.She is a human being not a family machine to just go on and on with no rest and no help. I feel and my own husband felt it to that more and more the man and kids should have chores and help mom as no one woman can work 24 hours a day seven days a week and not get sick.Here in the USA we appreciate the woman of the family but in more practical ways,hubbies and kids will also help out around the home, as its their home too.Women sti ll do this for love of family but moderndays we realize that nobody canwork such long hours without getting ill and exhausted. Our views and cultures may differ but we all respect mom and wife as the center of our homes,its just that here we feel a family should work together more as a team. Farm families have to do this in order to survive and so should city families.
