Mother’s Day is on Sunday, May 13 and as always, it is the perfect day to tell mom just how much you love her. Of course, you should be doing that everyday, but Mother’s Day is a great excuse to go above and beyond what you normally do for mom.
And if you don’t have kids of your own and your own mom is no longer around, or isn’t involved in your life, that doesn’t mean that you still can’t celebrate. Celebrate with a mom you admire – your stepmom, an aunt, a friend. Or even just someone you see in passing with their kids, don’t be afraid to with them a Happy Mother’s Day too.
Mother’s Day doesn’t have to be about expensive gifts and fancy dinners. Yes, it is nice to pamper mom for all that she has done for you, but if you don’t have the money to do so, it’s probably best that you stick to something within your means (and I’m sure your mother would agree with me on that one). Besides, more often than not the best gifts are the ones that money can’t buy.
Some great ideas that don’t require a lot of money, but a lot of heart include: writing a letter, making a photo album, cooking a nice dinner or sending her a song.
To help you out, we’ve rounded up some of the best country songs to send your mom this Mother’s Day. Any one on this list is guaranteed to make her special day.
