Mom's are the best, aren't they?

They are up at the crack of dawn doing loads of laundry, cleaning the dirty dishes, and sweeping the messy floors!

Many of us don't even know how to begin to thank our moms for all they have done. I mean, they have given us the beauty of life, right?

When we want to thank our moms in some way, some of us go off and blow our budget to try and show appreciation for our mother.

But that doesn't have to be the case!

At least, not with me.

I have gathered 5 ways to honor your mom for all she has done for absolutely FREE!

FREE?

Yes, free! No cost at all.

Here we go.


1. Bring her a home-cooked meal in bed. This can be breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

That one morning she takes a little extra time to sleep in, surprise her with her favorite breakfast! Or let her know she doesn't have to cook dinner and instead tell her to go to bed, then bring her in a meal on a tray. And while you're at it... make me one too!


2. Do her laundry for a change. I mean, she has been doing yours for years... How about returning the favor for the day?

Those dirty socks of yours that she is always cleaning and bleaching that shirt over and over. How about you switch roles for the day? Let her take a break!


3. Give her a massage. She is your MOM! She has to put up with YOU all the time.

I don't know many people that would turn down a massage. So why not? Next time you see your mom either at hard work or just chilling around the house. Tell her to lay down and relax, then go grab the lotion and have at it. I am sure she has several knots on her back that you can help get out!


4. Wash and clean out her car. freshly vacuumed carpets. She will definitely appreciate that one!

Your mom is so busy trying to take care of you that she barely makes enough time for herself. Treat her with a nice new scrub to her car and freshly vacuumed carpets. Next time she gets inside her car it will smell so nice, she won't have anything to do but breathe in, then smile, and thank you later!


5. Write her a letter.

Write how much she means to you and how much you appreciate her. Remind her of what she has done for you and how you wouldn't be here without her. This one is the best because it is personal and can be saved forever to look back on.

But, no matter what you decide to do for your mom, I am sure she will love it!

After all, she loves you!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
