Hey GrayViners!

It's Mother’s Day, folks—and whether you’re celebrating your mom, a stepmom, an aunt, a grandma, or someone who just stepped up with love when you needed it, today’s the perfect day to give them the tributes they deserve.

So, here’s the question: If you could say one thing to your mom (or someone who felt like a mom), what would it be?

Maybe it’s a simple “thank you”, a fond memory, or something you wish you’d said back then. Whether she’s still with you or not, your words can be a beautiful tribute today.

I’ll start: “Thanks for teaching me that doing the right thing is always worth it—even when no one’s watching.” That one’s stuck with me.

Your turn! Drop your tribute in the comments—we’d love to read every word.


Cheers!
Blue

I wish I had seen you more as a person with hopes and dreams instead of just a mother.

Mom, you did it all for us. Sacrificed so we could have more. Willing went "above and beyond" for us. Truly we were sby God every day we had you as our Mom. Happy heavenly Mothers Day

Happy Mother's Day to my wonderful Mom in Heaven. Thank you for helping me become the man I am. I miss you and our Sunday morning coffee chats.

Hi, Mom-- Don't you worry--I'm going to be just fine.

Hi mom. I wish you and I had talked more about your childhood and your family. I miss you.

Dearest mother thank you for being a Christian and pointing me to Jesus, our Savior.

Thank you Mom for being my adopted Mom. Love you and wish we could still be more closer but circumstances control that but at least we do 2/3 calls a day and even with distance i see you 2/3 times a month. Love ya Mom

These comments are so beautiful members, thank you all so much for sharing.

To my Mum, thank you for all the sacrifices and for always putting us first. Everything that you have done for us will never, ever be forgotten

Wish I had known you!! (she died when I was 2 years old)

 

[Marilea]

I’d love to tell her much more I appreciate her now, and that I’m similar to her in many ways.

I would tell my mom that I know she would enjoy all the great grandchildren she never got to meet. I would tell her how I see her in my kids and my nieces
I would tell her I just miss her.

This is such a beautiful thread everyone, thank you so much for sharing. It's making me quite emotional
