What to Write Inside a Mother’s Day Card for Mom
A typical mom card usually includes a special message, a design that reflects mother’s, and a personal touch. Whether it’s a simple “Happy Mother’s Day” or a longer message expressing your love and appreciation, the words you choose make the card special. (And adding a personal touch, like a hand-drawn picture or a special memory, can make the card even more meaningful.)
Here are a few ideas of Mother’s Day messages to include inside of the card for Mom:
- Write about a special memory.
- Write or draw your favorite thing to do with mom.
- Write four favorite thing about mom.
- Tell about something you’re grateful for Mom teaching you.
- For little kids: A picture of you and mom together doing something you love.
- Don’t forget to include happy mothers day somewhere in (or on) the card.
