Hey! It's going to be Mother's day again. Have you planned something good for your Mama? If not, try even one of these tips.

Make Your Mama Proud

What special talents do you have? Maybe this is the right time to show it to her. She would be very proud and surprised if she'd realized that you have something that she doesn't expect.

What's Her Favorite?

Most teens don't what their mama's favorite. You do? Then, what are you waiting for buy her some of her favorite stuff and put a little twist on it. Make it more special.

The best time to give her that is while she is sleeping at night. Put it on the drawer next to her so that when she wakes up she'll be surprised to see it. And, maybe, a little tear may fall down from her cheeks.

The Memories

Our mothers have special memories in mind. Those are the times that they gave birth to their healthy baby. How about you? What's your best moment with her? Maybe you can tell her about the time she got mad at you because you did something that you thought is right but since that day forward you realized your mistakes. Or, you can tell her how happy you are when she was there during your painful days in your life.

Be Her

What does she look like if she is so exhausted and angry and tired? What does she do for your family? This is the right time to show her the things that she usually does at home. Try to imitate her voice when she is angry. Make your face as if you are her when she is mad.

Treat a Queen

Your house is a palace with a king and queen (it doesn't matter if you're rich or poor). Our mother is the real queen in our life and in our family though her duties make her look like she is not. Give the lady a day off by being a servant to her.

Make-Over Beauty

Because of stress and the problems that she is facing right now, especially in the family, admit it! She doesn't look great anymore. Most mothers are not into trends anymore because their focusing on us.

Perhaps you could take some of your savings to treat her in a salon or the department store. Then, choose nice clothes that would make her look GLAMOROUS!

Have Some of Your Time

It's the cheapest but a meaningful way. Most of us are busy from our work, friends, boy/girl friends, school. We stay home late and after several hours, we go out again.

Have you ever had a meaningful time with your mother where you don't think or talk about problems and arguments? Have you ever tell her how much you thank her from the life she gave to you, the time she took care of you, and for every suffering she'd felt for you? Have you ever tell her that you love her?

Life is short. We don't know what will happen tomorrow nor today. Those three words can make her heart jump for joy, you know? Just tell her I love you! and it would make her smile so sweetly. Just try! We don't wanna miss a thing, right?

让妈妈为之自豪

你有什么特长或才能？可能这是向她展示的好时机。如果她意识到你有出人意料的才能，她会感到十分自豪和惊喜。

她最喜欢什么？

大多数青少年都不知道妈妈喜欢什么，你知道吗？那么你还等什么，给她买样心仪的礼物，然后自己包装一下，看上去会特别有心意。

送出礼物的最好时间，是她晚上睡着的时候。放在她身边的抽屉里，这样当她醒来就能惊喜地发现它。或许，她会感动得热泪盈眶。

回忆

我们的母亲心里总有特别的回忆。那就是孩子健康出生的那一刻。那你呢？什么时候是你和妈妈之间的难忘一刻？可能你会告诉她你犯错她发火的时候，因为你觉得自己做得没错，事后才发现自己犯错了。或者你告诉她你伤心的时候她陪在身边，让你感到多么幸福。

模仿她

当妈妈筋疲力竭或者火冒三丈的时候，她看上去是怎样？她为家庭付出些什么？是时候让她知道她在家中通常都做些什么。试试模仿她生气的声音。模仿她发怒的表情。

当作"皇后"

无论贫穷还是富有，每个家里都有一个国王，一个皇后。母亲是这个家也是生活中真正的皇后，即便她的母亲之责让她看起来不怎么像。那就放她一天假，把她当皇后服侍吧。

重塑美貌

压力过大，她正变得不再美丽，尤其在家里，不得不承认这个问题。她看上去不如从前漂亮了。大多数母亲都只管照顾我们不再打扮时髦。

我们或许可以拿出一部分积蓄，请她去美容沙龙或者去百货公司购物。为她挑件漂亮的衣服，让她看起来光彩照人！

花些时间陪伴

这个方法最省钱，也最有意义。我们中大多数人都忙于工作学习，朋友聚会，或者谈恋爱。就算在家，也就待几个小时，然后又出门了。

你有没有好好陪陪母亲，不再想着或者谈论问题和争执？你有没有告诉过她，你感激她赋予你生命，花时间照顾你，为你受尽苦痛？你有没有告诉过她，你爱她？

生命短暂，时光匆匆，我们无法预知明天发生什么。知道吗？简单的三个字就能让她心花怒放？告诉她，"我爱你！"她听了一定会喜笑颜开。试试吧！我们不想错过这一切，难道不是吗？
