No pressure.

Mother’s Day card messages for moms

Where to begin? You could take some inspiration from the great, the wise, and the witty, and have a look at our roundup of 80 Mother’s Day quotes.

Want to write your own Mother’s Day message? Here are some ideas:

  • Pick out a great memory of your mom – an awesome day out, or a time she really had your back – and write about it.

  • Tell her about the best piece of Mom wisdom she’s passed on. Let’s face it, she’s right: your glasses do make you look smart.

  • As we get older, most of us get that sneaking suspicion that we’re becoming a bit like our parents. That hobby you hated as a teenager but love now, your taste in sweaters, the family way of laughing… It’s not all bad news: Thank your mom for passing on these gifts.

  • Or make a joke about the good habits you wish you’d picked up – thanks for the great hair, mom, but if only I’d inherited your DIY skills as well…

  • What’s she like when she’s not doing the mom thing? List a few ways your mom would amaze you even if she weren’t, you know, your mom.
