When you ask your mom what she wants for Mother's Day, does she say, "oh, I don't want anything!"?

Mothers are so kind and generous they don't even think about the things they deserve on their special holiday. This holiday is the best because it lets us give our mothers recognition for everything they do for us. We could and should do this every day. But if we are being honest here, no one gets their mom a gift every single day and tells them how thankful they are for them. This day is the day where we show them how much we love and appreciate them.

If you are like me, I always struggle finding a Mother's Day gift. My mom always tells me I shouldn't get her anything. Probably because she knows I'm broke, but that's besides the point. You shouldn't go looking for the biggest, most expensive gift in the store. From what I have noticed in my past 19 years is that mother's seem to like the handwritten cards with true meaning behind them. Beautiful flowers handpicked from yourself. And a hug that truly means something.

This past year I have felt like my mom has been there for me through everything. She always has but I felt it this year especially after going away for college. She is my best friend and I honestly can say, I do not know what I would do without her. Every good luck text, every goodnight message, every hug I get when I walk through the door. She makes me know that I am loved. This Sunday it is her turn to know she is loved each and every day.

Thank you to all the moms out there making life a bit more bearable! You are loved, and I hope you have a great Mother's Day!

PS—I love you Mom!
