❤️ Loving Mother's Day sayings for your mum

Dear mum,
You have taken on so many roles for me: best friend, landlady, nurse, cook, lawyer, teacher, trainer and comforter. But there is one thing you will never be: replaceable. 

Dearest mum,
Today I say thank you - for listening, for understanding, for your boundless love. Wherever you are, that's my home. Dearest mum, these flowers and I have something in common: we have blossomed because someone has cared for us with so much love. 

My mum,
There are many days when I would like to tell you how much I miss you sometimes and how much I love you. Today I am sending them to you as a thank you for your unconditional love, without which I would not be the person I am today. 

My dearest and greatest mum,
thanks to you, everything in my life is always tutti! That's another reason why I'm sending this beautiful and fragrant bouquet of flowers straight to your door today! 

Dear Mum,
You are not only my mum, but also my hero. You taught me how to be strong and independent and always encouraged me to enjoy life to the full. I want to tell you how much I love you and how grateful I am that you are my mum. I wish you a day full of happiness and joy!
