From Writing Letter To Getting Her Flowers, Here Are Some Thoughtful Gestures To Make Your Maa Smile On Mother’s Day
Plan, plan!
After I started to live alone, far far away from home, one person who I miss the most is my mother. I’ve realised that celebrating her presence one day is not enough but well, on the other hand, we should also not leave the chance of not doing anything special on the day dedicated to this beautiful woman in your life. Here’s a list of some thoughtful ideas that you can plan to bring the brightest smile to your mother’s face.
1. Start Your Mother’s Day By Giving Her Flowers
This is the least expected surprise, trust me. Just give your mother a flower and see how she blushes.

2. Give Her A Break From Cooking!
Trust me but living alone has taught me that cooking is one of the most tiring chores. Our mothers have been doing it selflessly for years. While she may not allow outside food every day, you can plan a cheat day for her on Mother’s Day. Take her out for dinner or lunch. Make her feel special!

3. Give Her 5 Senses Gift
Now, this is another thoughtful gift that you need to think hard about. For this, you will have to think of 5 gifts around the 5 senses- smell, taste, touch, sound and sight. Think think!

4. Make A Care Package For Her
Add some good skincare products in this package, or nice soft and luxury bedsheets with an eye mask for a sweet good night’s sleep.

5. Write Her A Letter, Be Ready To See Some Precious Tears In Her Eyes!

6. Plan A Short Mother’s Day Programme
If you ask me, more than any materialist gifts, mothers are more touched by the real efforts you make. So plan a short programme with your dad and siblings. Sing a song for her or recite a poem, make her feel loved and not someone who is there to take care of your needs.

7. Send Her A Cake If You’re Living Away!
Firstly, I know it’s very hard to live away from your mom, and kudos to everyone who has been doing this for years. So since you have got limited options on this Mother’s Day, don’t forget to send your mom a cake and some flowers too! She will not be expecting this surprise, BTW!

Well, if you think, making your mother smile is not really difficult, most of the time, it’s just your presence that is enough for her! Happy Mother’s Day to every Maa!
