Mom – An Everyday Super Hero

Moms. They sleep the least, and smile the most. They work really had, yet never they boast.

They are more than a coach, they are your #1 fans. They manage each day and try to plan.

They play taxi driver, nurse, teacher and so much more. They devote the most time and yet they never keep score.

They are everyday heroes through and through. That’s you MOM – thanks for all that you do!

Mother’s day is coming up and there are many ways to let any Mom know just how special she is. We all have many women in our life that are very are special to us. Although we may appreciate and care about someone, we often neglect to let them know, and regret it when it is too late. Making someone’s day special doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive. There are many ways to make someone’s day special:

Make a Phone Call

Now that emailing, instant messaging, and texting have become a way of life, it’s easy to go for long periods of time without hearing the voice of a friend. Pick up the phone and make a call to someone important to you. Show them you care and have set time aside to catch up with them.

Send a Letter

Another thing we have lost in modern times is the art of a nice, handwritten letter. Emails are convenient, but there is nothing like opening up a letter that is handwritten. Give it a try and see what kind of a response you get.

Bake Something

We have a ton of recipes here on Life is Poppin’. Mom will love getting these Pistachio Cupcakes! They are a wonderful, not-too-sweet cupcake that is sure to please.
