Mother Knows Best
Somebody once said that no one in the world can take the place of our mothers. True enough, our moms are really extraordinary. No one else but they are given the rare opportunity to bring us into the world, to nurture us, to provide for us, to teach us, to discipline us and basically to raise us up. That’s why it’s only fitting that we devote a special day for them every year.
Mother’s Day in the Philippines this year falls on May 11. It’s a good thing MC asked when Mother’s Day is celebrated in our country because apparently, different countries give tribute to mothers on various days of the year. Just remember that for us, it’s always the second Sunday of May. But I believe what people are mostly asking in Answers about Mother’s Day would be gift ideas for moms. It can be overwhelming to think of what to give to the most important woman in our lives, I know because I have that same dilemma. Momx3 asked that question and was able to get a lot of good ideas from the community, particularly from TxsWitchWAB.
Personally, I think the best gift we can give our moms this Mother’s Day is our time. It’s really not how expensive the gift is, it’s about spending quality time with my mom and letting her know how much I love her and how thankful and blessed I am for all she has done for me. Abuelamah thinks the same and asked everyone how we want to spend Mother’s Day and a lot shared how they and their families plan to spend this special day with their moms.
Reading all these questions and answers about Mother’s Day all the more inspires me and reminds me of how much my mom means to me and how important it is to celebrate her day this May 11. So to all the mothers out there, Happy Mother’s Day!
