1. SHE ALWAYS, ALWAYS TOOK CARE OF YOU
From the moment our mom found out she was expecting us, she began taking care of us and it has never changed. Even when we didn’t like her, was irritated by her or we were worried for her, she still takes care of us. Her care never ends.
2. SHE IS A TEACHER
Mom’s teach us right from wrong and show us how to be honest by being brutally honest herself. She passes on her wisdom, even if you roll your eyes or don’t want to hear her tidbits of wisdom. Like ‘never go out without clean underwear on’ or you need a hat and boots on. Didn’t she know that would embarrass you since you were now in high school. I mean, really, who wears a hat or boots. Duh! Being a bully is unacceptable, clean your room and it goes on with us not realizing this was to show us how to be better people.
3. SHE LAUGHS AT ALL YOUR CORNY JOKES AND THE JOKES YOU PULL ON HER
Who hasn’t stood around a corner and yelled “boo” when your Mom came around the corner and then both of you crack up laughing as she chased you back around that corner.

4. SHE NAGS YOU FOR ALL THE RIGHT REASONS
Because Moms care and want you to be a good person. She wants to make sure you can take care of yourself when you go out into the adult world. So, she nags. If she didn’t, would you have cleaned up your room, did the dishes, or watch out for your siblings and the nagging goes on.
5. SHE IS BADASS WHEN SHE NEEDS TO BE
Even when she doesn’t want to be, but she plays the bad guy anyway. Because she knows that she wouldn’t be a good mom if she didn’t make you hate her a few times growing up. That’s what happens when she is trying to teach you lessons you need to learn. She may be hard, but when you are older and look back, you will realize she was right. It helped make you who you are today.
6. SHE IS PROUD OF YOUR SUCCESSES, ALWAYS HAS YOUR BACK AND AND IS YOUR BIGGEST CHEERLEADER
Growing up your Mom was always on your side, in any situation. She’d cheer you from the sidelines and smile from ear to ear when you accomplished something you really wanted.
7. MANY TIMES SHE IS SELFLESS AND SACRIFICES
Last cookie—it’s yours, need to be at practice at the crack of dawn—no problem, Mom is there. Holding your head while you are sick, yep, that’s Mom. You forgot your science project is due in the morning—who helps you get it together? You got it-Mom! Even though she knows she has to work in the morning.
8. SHE ACCEPTS YOU
Your Mom accepts you for who you are; remember she’s been with you from your first second. She knows who you are, maybe even better than you do.
9. SHOWS YOU HOW TO LOVE UCONDITIONALLY
Even through your terrible two’s and cranky adolescent years when you didn’t like anyone; you knew your Mom loved you. Unconditional love and devotion until her last breathe and further if possible. These things from your Mom are and will be unmatched and irreplaceable by anyone else…..
It’s Mother’s Day soon and I know we are all looking for that special gift for our very special Moms. When you need to find a gift for someone, try and think about things that you know they like and go in that direction. If you know there is something your Mom really wants, but wouldn’t get it for herself, then here is your chance. Get it for her.
I’ve made some suggestions for you throughout this post, to help with your search. I included things like picture frames. By themselves they aren’t much, but there isn’t a mother anywhere that wouldn’t like a framed picture of her kids or grand kids for Mother’s Day.
I included some ideas to pamper her and some unique ideas along with the usual traditional gift ideas for Moms.
