Mother's Day is all about celebrating moms, grandmas, mothers-in-law, and motherly figures in our lives. These women provide Love and guidance year-round, and they deserve to know how much we appreciate them. While one day is not enough, it's the perfect time to show her some extra love. Buying her a gift and picking out flowers will bring a smile to her face, but nothing beats figuring out what to write in a Mother's Day card so she feels the love.
We know it can be difficult to find the perfect words. How do you show your mom how special she is in just a few sentences? While it might not be an easy task, we're simplifying the process so you can focus more on your feelings and less on where to begin.
No matter what you decide to write in the card, make sure to pair it with some unique gifts for your mom or a last-minute gift if you are running out of time.
Ahead, find heartfelt, funny, and sweet notes to add to your Mother's Day card so Mom laughs, smiles, and feels the love.
