Make every day a special day
Are you going to spoil your mother or tell her how much she means to you today?

I hope so.
I cringe when I see Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and Valentine’s Day on the calendar.
Not only does a hole start to burn in my wallet, but I’m irked by how commercialised the days are.
They are intended to commemorate our parents and loved ones, but I always feel the need to splurge out on money to show my appreciation to the person concerned.
I also feel that it’s the one day where I need to be on my best behaviour and do everything I can to alleviate the stress on my parents and better half.
Am I the only one?
Should we not boycott these days and show our appreciation to our better halves, mother and father on every other day?
Join me in loving our parents and better halves every other day. KvdL
