What To Write In Your Mother’s Day Card

What To Write In Your Mother’s Day Card

We’ve all been there. You carefully choose a beautiful card. You’ve found the perfect thing for someone special, avoiding anything too cliched or samey. Only, when you sit down to write a message, your mind goes as blank as the inside page.

Or even worse, there’s a pre-written message inside, saying something that just doesn’t sound like you. It’s the stuff of gifting nightmares.

Mother’s Day Messages

Our mums are unique, and we all want to write a card that’s unique to match. This mothers day, we’re saying avoid the over-used and the under-considered messages (and give pre-printed greetings a hard pass). As something of experts in all things Mother’s Day (and Father’s Day, and all other days that require a card) we thought we’d give you some inspiration of what to write in a Mother’s Day card...

What is a traditional Mother’s Day message?

Some things we write in cards stand the test of time, just like the love we feel for our Mums.

I’m so lucky to call you my mum!

Thank you for everything you’ve done for me, and everything you do.

I don’t know where I’d be without you. You’re my inspiration.

Sending you all my love this Mother’s Day.

Thank you for always being there – whenever, wherever.

You’re the best mum in the world – I lucked out!

Thinking of you today – and every day!


What if you celebrate other people on Mother’s Day?

At Freddie’s Flowers, we like to think of it as Mother’s and Others’ day. So some of our cards might look a little different. But some can stay the same!

I’m so lucky to have you in my life.

Thank you for everything you’ve done for me, and everything you do.

You’re the best of the best – I really lucked out!

I don’t know where I’d be without you. You’re my inspiration.

Thank you for always being there – whenever, wherever.

Sending you all my love this weekend. It’s the least you deserve!

Thinking of you today – and every day!

Funny things you can write in a Mother’s Day card

So many of us get our sense of humour from our mums – so why not give a little back?

You’re the best mum I’ve got.

Best mum, from a list of one.

You’re not too bad, I guess.

I love you almost as much as I love your roast potatoes.

I thought you were worth more than garage flowers.

So there you have it – a few ideas to get your creative juices flowering, and to help you come up with some personalised mothers day messages of your own.

Of course, these messages are great in any card – but they’re particularly spectacular in the gift note included in a Freddie’s Flowers Mother’s Day delivery. Choose from four arrangements, in three sizes – with 7 day delivery, and next day options (if you order before 8pm). Because Freddie’s Flowers is all about helping you brighten the days of those who brighten yours.
