Happy Mothers Day to all our readers’ mothers/ammas/aayis/ammees/maajis and to our readers who are mothers/ammas/aayis/ammees/maajis.
A few quick tips from UberDesi for those who are stuck for Mothers Day ideas:
1. Make her breakfast, she will appreciate it, even if you cannot cook. Don’t let her make your breakfast, unlike what this worthless son made his mother do.
2. Get her a card and some flowers. Even if you cannot afford expensive gifts, it’s the thought that counts.
3. Take her out for ice cream. Who says mothers don’t enjoy ice cream?
4. Tell her to chill and take it easy, she deserves it.
Downside to being an expat, this is the first Mothers Day in 8 years, I spent with my mother.
The upside, you appreciate it even more.
