Posted: May 17, 2019
-
Do something the first time you are asked. How often does mom have to waste time and energy asking you to do the same thing over and over. Give the gift of more energy by doing the task immediately.
-
Make her a memento of the incredible times you’ve spent together. Nothing makes mom feel more special than when you take the time to show you value the time you have spent together. Collect pictures and create a collage, a scrapbook or a Powerpoint presentation that shows highlights of time spent together.
-
Make her lunch or dinner. How many meals has mom made you? Turn the table and give mom the royal treatment by preparing a nice meal for her. Keep the meal simple and don’t forget to include set up and clean up.
-
Keep your room clean. Nothing feels better to a mom than to walk by your room and see it clean. Give mom a break so she can focus on something else instead of having to remind you to do your chores
-
Cooperate with your siblings. Tension in a house can often come in the form of siblings arguing with each other. Take a break from this by calling a truce and allow the sounds in the house to be warm and inviting.
-
When you make a mistake apologize. No matter who you are, it is inevitable you will from time to time mess up. It’s normal and natural. Make it also be your natural habit that when a mess up occurs with mom that you take the time to apologize.
-
Tell her you love her every day. No sweeter words have ever been spoken. It reminds mom that no matter that circumstance, your love for her trumps everything. Tell her every chance you get so that you never have to live with the regret of not expressing enough love.
