Choosing Your Resolutions for Mother’s Day

Choosing resolutions for Mother’s Day is about celebrating love, appreciation, and connection. From being more present to creating special memories, it’s a chance to grow closer and show how much she truly means to you.

1. Talk Positive

Most of the times mothers find themselves repeating “no” or any other variation of the word to their children. It is always about what they should ‘NOT’ do. While it is important to make sure that the children learn the right way to go about life, the tactic for doing so can be improved. Instead of telling them what not to do, make a resolution to tell them more of what they should do.

2. Call it a Day

For working moms the biggest challenge is not to check e-mails constantly or bring work home from office. There is always much more work to do than they can manage with their limited time. However, it is important that you fix a time after which you devote all your time and attention only to your family. It will help you relax as well as bond with your family.

3. Pay Attention

While mothers find it irritating when their grown-up children spend more time on the phone, laptop or video games, you must take a pause and think whether you do the same. How many times do you check your phone when you are sitting with your child? This year putting the phone away should be one of the top five resolutions for mothers.

4. Juggling Between Baby and Me Time

One of the biggest change that happens in life once a child is born is that they monopolize all your attention and time. Everything you do is guided by the needs and wants of your child. While that is definitely a sign of being a good parent, at the end of the day you need to take care of yourself too. Resolve to strike a balance that gives you some time out to do what you need to do as well.

5. Hubby Time

After becoming a mother, the one person who takes the back seat is the husband. While you tend to remember him every time you are frustrated with the way things are with your life and baby, he might appreciate getting some attention from you. Spend time with him, go out for a surprise date night and you will love it too!

6. Create a Family Tradition

Start a yearly tradition, like a Mother’s Day brunch or a memory journal, to cherish and pass down through generations.

7. Learn Something New Together

Strengthen your bond by trying something fresh and fun as a team. Whether it’s a cooking class, a DIY craft project, or even learning a new recipe she loves, shared experiences create new memories and keep the connection vibrant and engaging.

8. Be More Patient and Present

Sometimes, the best resolution is to slow down and truly listen. Promise yourself to be more patient in conversations, more attentive during visits, and more mindful of your time together. It’s in the little things—eye contact, smiles, shared laughter—that real connection is built.

9. Celebrate Her Throughout the Year

Don’t wait for Mother’s Day to show her how special she is. Surprise her with her favorite flowers, plan an impromptu visit, or just send a heartfelt message. These little “just because” moments can make her feel loved every day, not just once a year.

10. Support Her Dreams and Hobbies

Sometimes moms put their passions on hold for their families. Encourage her to revisit hobbies she loves—whether it’s gardening, painting, or traveling. Be her biggest cheerleader in pursuing what brings her joy.

This Mother’s Day, give your family and yourself the gift of being a better mom and person by resolving to weed out all the things you dislike. You are doing a good job already, but you can improve it further by making these small changes. It is better to start off with your resolutions while your child is small.
