She’s the woman who looked after you when you were sick, exercised endless patience over school homework and made countless meals over the years, so as we approach Mother’s Day it’s the opportunity to toast this central figure in our lives who helped make us what we are.
It’s the chance to spend one day in 365 saying thanks for the worrying, nurturing and occasional nagging with a here’s cheers to mum. Here are our top ingredients to make Mother’s Day all about her.
A pinch of R&R
It’s a well-established fact that the last thing on any mum’s mind is probably herself. No matter whether the children are aged two, 10 or 24, putting aside personal needs starts with the arrival of that first child and fades little over the years. So what better way to start Mother’s Day than with a little pre-planned pampering?
Whether it’s an uninterrupted sleep in, a welcome reprieve from the washing or the full-scale gift of a beauty session and massage, the message is we know the effort you put in, the time it takes and, despite all indications to the contrary, it’s always appreciated.
A dash of luxury
Yes, a Ferrari would do the trick, but for most mums the luxury of a heartfelt gift is enough. That’s why she kept all your kindy paintings and lovingly filed those handmade birthday cards for all those years.
But if you’re a little past paddle pop stick portraits, and papier mâché hanging hearts, why not splash out on something she’d never buy herself, with a little luxury like jewellery or perfume to celebrate the sometimes less than luxurious lifestyle of motherhood?
A host of fine fare
Honestly, the best gift you can give most mums is your time, and the warm embrace of celebrating the day with her nearest and dearest.
Whether it’s a brunch, lunch or dinner, a meal out with the family is a great opportunity to treat mum to fine fare, a festive atmosphere and the added bonus of not having to clean up after the guests go home.
George’s Mediterranean Bar & Grill will be celebrating Mother’s Day, and from our family to yours, we’re keen to indulge Mums.
A whole lot of love
It doesn’t matter if it’s hugs, kisses, brunch or flowers, Mother’s Day is simply about spoiling mum with a whole lot of love. It’s the day to say we love you for the way you loved us; at our best, at our worst, through our tantrums and our triumphs, always cheering us on front the frontline or the sideline of life.
