Let’s Celebrate Mothers

It’s time to celebrate and honor the Mother in your life and all she brings, whether it be a birth mother, stepmother, or mother figure for Mother’s Day.

This holiday can bring on a range of emotions, some good and not so good. Some may have lost their mother, not have a good relationship with their mother, or wish they had a mother figure in their life. However, if you do have a mother or mother figure in your life, look no further as the possibilities to celebrate are endless.

Some ideas include:

• Take a trip to the spa

• Go to the park or beach

• Go catch a movie or event

• Give flowers and a card

• Cook a nice meal and enjoy it at home with family/friends

• Call and have a lovely conversation

• Play your favorite family games (board, athletic, etc)

• Go out to a restaurant

• Take a walk in one of your favorite neighborhoods/cities and try a new restaurant, bakery, etc.

• Take a day trip or go away for the weekend

Also, if you don’t currently have a mother figure in your life, I’d suggest you visit close friends and their Mothers, or a good friend, as I’m sure that they’d enjoy your company. It beats the alternative of staying home alone and not enjoying the day.

I hope everyone makes a beautiful new memory with the special women in their life.
