How To Wish Mom a Happy Birthday

A few extra touches here and there will really make your mom feel special. Follow these steps to personalise the card – it will make all the difference!

1. If you have a special name that you call your moum, like “momsy”, “momaloo” or even “mama duck”, use it to address the card.
2. Think about what makes your mom unique. Is she very loving? Does she love being glamourous? Would you describe her as creative or thoughtful? Think about whatever it is that makes her exceptional and select a few adjectives to incorporate into your overall message.
3. Try and write a birthday wish from the heart. Think about all the sweet, perfect things you wish for her for this new year in her life. Don’t rush it – sometimes something as precious as this takes time.

There’s no one in the world who could ever measure up to your mom, which is perhaps why it can be so difficult to put your birthday wishes for her into words.

When it comes to your mom’s birthday, be sure that you write her a card that’s from the heart. She is the most wonderful woman in the world, after all.

No matter what the birthday gift may be, she will absolutely love it and treasure your card’s message forever. Remember: she even loved those macaroni necklaces you used to make for her in nursery school!
