Give mom a treat

 

So, what are you getting your mom this Mother’s Day? Yes, we do know that like other holidays, this day has become commercialized and so on but hey, it’s your mother and don’t you think that she deserves a day for her very own, or like the card says, ‘everyday should be mother’s day’.

Having said that, sometimes it is really hard to decide what to get your mother! After all, this is the woman who raised you, looked after you when you were sick, listened to your troubles, corrected you when you were wrong and among many other things and generally gave you the tools to build a successful life.

Never mind that sometimes, you thought that she didn’t really like you (especially when you were bent on doing the wrong thing) or you had wished that she wasn’t so strict. Of course all that changed when she gave you the item that you had for weeks been begging for.
