Mother’s Day
Mother’s Day is on Sunday 22nd of March and it’s time to show your mum that you really do care about her. Go and pick up a fresh bunch of flowers and tell her how much you love her! M others and mother-figures are incomparable. They may be the first people we ever know when we enter the world, and they love and care for us as we grow up and beyond. Once a year, countries around the world celebrate Mother’s Day; a day dedicated to all mothers or mother figures so that we can show our appreciation. The fourth Sunday of Lent, otherwise known as Mother’s Day or Mothering Sunday, is a time for celebrating all that our Mums have done for us over the years. With more of us living further away from home and loved ones than ever before, the time we spend with our family on Mother’s Day is all the more special.Today, we know Mother’s Day as a day where we acknowledge the incredible things the women in our lives do for us. Mother’s Day isn’t always about our own mothers, it’s about all mums, step-mums, mothers-in-law, mums to be, nans, grans, sisters, aunties, carers and the list goes on! Mother’s Day is a chance to make them all feel special for all of the great things they do for us. It’s a day to show love, gratitude and appreciation to all wonderful mums everywhere, through acts of kindness and the giving of Mothers Day gifts and flowers. Wouldn’t a nice, hot bubble bath be the perfect mother’s day treat? Stock up on salts and lotions this Mother’s Day to allow your mum to sit back, relax and unwind for a long soak with a glass of her favourite wine, a new book or a soothing playlist of her best-loved songs blissfully playing in the background. Let’s face it, most mums despise having a messy home with toys flung everywhere and mountains of washing piles scattered around the house. So team up, grab some rubber gloves, sponges and the feather duster for a day of scrubbing and polishing. Mum can put her feet up with a cup of tea whilst you do the hard work hoovering and cleaning - don’t forget the washing, ironing and dishes too! A day of relaxation and peace doesn’t have to be expensive and involve a fancy spa. Why not take the kids out for the day to give mum a day of rest and pampering. And if you’ve got toddlers then she may even be able to go to the toilet without a 3-year-old hanging from her leg begging for food for the 10th time of the day...the littlest things really do make a difference!
But are lavish gifts such as jewellery, gift vouchers or spa days really what mums want for Mother’s day?
