Tell your Mum you love her every chance you get: Every time a child is born, so is a mother. Although we do not have an instructional manual for life, we are each given special women to guide us, help us through our challenges and cheer us on when we succeed. 1. Youre beautiful. Women never tire of hearing this, yet somehow never believe it. 2. Thank you. You can never say this enough. The list of things moms do for you is endless. 3. Can you write that down? From household tips to family stories, the list of things my mom told me, that Ive now forgotten, is huge. I wish Id thought to ask her to write it down. 4. What is your recipe for potato salad? No one makes it quite like mom. You will crave it, your family will ask you for it, so make sure her signature recipe is handed down in writing. 5. Tell me about the day I was born, again. Hearing the story, you cant help but feel like the most wonderful thing to ever come into your moms life. When your mom is gone, youll want to remember every detail. 6. Lets just sit and talk. Enjoy the time you have together. Take the time to get to know her as a person and not just your mom. Ask about her friends, her hobbies, things shes done and things shed like to do. Let her know shes worth your time and attention. 7. How old was I when . . . ? Mom is practically the only source for knowledge of your milestones. Dads only seem to remember the events, not the time frame. 8. Let me do the dishes. A dish-free evening is one of the most appreciated gifts youll ever give to a mother. Shell get up from the table with a weight lifted from her shoulders. 9. Im sorry. Over the years, youll inconvenience your mom, disobey her, embarrass her and even hurt her. Its a good thing to acknowledge her patience and unconditional love. 10. I forgive you. Over the years, your mom will inconvenience you, embarrass you and even hurt you. Let her know you love her anyway. 11. What can I do for you? You cant count the things your mom has done for you. Look for something you can do to lighten her load and lift her heart. Dont take no for an answer. 12. I admire the way you . . . Moms like to be heroes, too. Let her know you notice and value the way she lives her life. Thank her for specific lessons she has taught. 13. May I have a hug? Dont shy away from physical affection. No one will ever hold you like your mother. 14. Youre the best mom in the world. She may protest, but every mother wants to think you believe it. 15. I love you, no matter what. In the end, moms are just like us. They want to know love is all embracing and unconditional. - See more at: familyshare/15-things-to-say-to-your-mom-while-you-still-have-the-chance#sthash.BwNww89H.dpuf
