Being a mom means you finally understand how much your mom really did for you. Celebrate her by writing:
* The highest compliment anyone can give me, Mom, is to say that I’m like you.
* I hope that I can be even a fraction of the wonderful mother you were to me. Have a beautiful Mother’s Day.
* From ‘Mommy’ to ‘Grandma,’ you’ve always found a way to be amazing at who you are.
For your spouse or significant other
Acknowledge your partner for being the glue that keeps your family going:
* You’re my best friend and a wonderful mother to our children. Everything you do makes our lives so special, and you deserve a beautiful Mother’s Day.
* You don’t hear it nearly as often as you should, but I appreciate you and love you for all you do for me and the kids.
* You’re the heart that makes our house a home.
For a new mom/1st Mother’s Day
Help her celebrate her very first Mother’s Day with an encouraging message:
