Short Mother's Day Quotes

We always tend to take certain relationships for granted and say least to those we love the most, in hope that our thoughts will automatically be understood. It's true that mothers have a special place in our lives but somehow our relationship with her becomes like what is described above; that even though we love her, we start to take her for granted. When the truth is, and we know it, that we can't thank her enough for the patience, encouragement, strength, and generosity she has showered on us without asking anything in return. She will however, maintain the same zeal, and will continue to just that in future as well. Will it then, not be hearty and much required gesture on our part to let her know that everything she did is appreciated? More than anything else; she, of all people in your life, deserves to know that. Don't let this mother's day slip by too; make the most of it. And one of the ways to express your feelings is through quotations; write them on greeting cards, gift labels or just read them. These simple yet powerful words will send your message of all the positive sentiments. She will laugh with it, cry with it and smile with it. Here, have a read!
